Dominio Do Bibei Lalume

Since his first vintage in 2001, Javier Dominguez’s Dominio do Bibei has been widely acknowledged as the driving force behind the emergence of quality wines in Spain’s historic Ribeira Sacra. His family bought land in the Bibei valley, Ribeira’ s most easterly sub-region, and today they own a 140 hectare estate, of which 45 hectares are planted to vines. Since then, he has worked tirelessly to revive the region and its indigenous vines.

Grapes for Dominio do Bibei Lalume are sourced from vineyards with varying exposures and altitudes ranging from 250 to 700 metres. Soils are primarily granite, and the vines are between 14 and 32 years old. Everything is hand-harvested and whole bunch pressed. Each parcel is vinified separately with indigenous yeasts, in a mix of used barrels, oak foudres, concrete eggs and stainless steel tanks.
