Winemaking Nectar de Campo translates to “nectar of the fields” in English, and as the name states this wine is a blend of all of the red grapes from the winery’s estate vineyards except the Nebbiolo. All grapes were picked on the same day and cofermented on native yeast, (some full cluster) for a period of 12 days in stainless steel tanks. The wine was then pressed from the skins and left to age on the lees for a period of 6 months in stainless tanks before being bottled without filtration or fining.

Tasting Notes All of the wines in the lineup from Dominio de Las Abejas are best summed up by a single word “delicious” as their balance of fruit, tannin, texture, and persistence all seems to perfectly tweak the pleasure dial to 11. In this vintage of their only red blend, we find all of the lusciousness and complexity of the previous vintages with an added bright high note of structure that gives it a slightly more serious tone. Beautifully layered and built to impress any pallet, those looking to explore natural wines and not loose contact with terra firma need look no further.
Selling Point Natural wine, native ferment, fresh bright red with no oak.
Pairings Light red sauces, mole dishes, roasted chicken and bacon.
Sustainability Vegan, Green Practicing, Sustainable In Practice, Minimal Intervention / Augmentation, Natural Fermentation
The Story
Nectar de campo translates to Fruit of the Fields, and this red blend does truly capture the expression of place Domino de las Abejas seeks to achieve. This is the kind of red blend that you can drink slightly chilled in the heat of a summer day and let its grace and elegance astound you. Fresh and complex as the high desert winds of Valle de Ojos from where it comes, consumers will marvel that this is a wine made without any corrections, and no fining or filtration of any kind. Natural wine made with perfect balance and expression.
