DO (Demonicación de Origen)
Why is DO important?
The DO classification is a sign of authenticity and quality. It assures consumers that the wine they purchase is a true representation of the region's specific terroir, including the unique characteristics of the climate, soil and traditional winemaking methods. This not only helps protect Spain's unique wine-growing traditions, but also supports the local economy and promotes biodiversity.
How does it work?
For a wine to carry the DO quality mark, it must be produced within the geographic boundaries of a DO region and must comply with rules set by that region's regulatory board. These rules may relate to permitted grape varieties, maximum yields per hectare, winemaking techniques and ripening processes. The wines undergo regular quality checks by independent bodies to ensure that they meet all requirements.
What does this mean for you as a wine lover?
When you choose a bottle of wine with a DO classification, you choose a wine with character and a story. It is a journey into the heart and soul of the region, where every sip tells you something about the history, the landscape and the people who passionately made this wine. Whether you're enjoying a glass of organic wine or exploring one of our vegan options, the DO rating provides an extra layer of confidence and appreciation in your wine experience.
At World of NIX we recognize the value of this classification and encourage you to discover the diversity and richness of DO wines. Cheers to a world full of taste and tradition!
