Álvar De Dios, Tio Uco 2023

Why we love this bottle

Álvar de Dios works vineyards in Toro and the surrounding areas with a clear focus on freshness, something not always associated with this region. Many of the vines for Tio Uco are old, bush-trained parcels that naturally give concentrated fruit, yet Álvar picks early and works gently in the cellar to keep the wine lifted. 

Álvar picks earlier and keeps the winemaking gentle, aiming for clarity and control rather than weight.

We love it because it brings focus and restraint to a region known for power, giving you depth without excess.
