The DO Vinos de Madrid appellation, located in the Madrid region of Spain, represents a dynamic and diverse wine treasure. Officially recognized since 1990, this vineyard spans four distinct sub-zones: Arganda, Navalcarnero, San Martín, and the recently added El Molar, each contributing unique characteristics to the overall appellation. The dry continental climate, influenced by mountainous areas and significant temperature variations between day and night, allows optimal grape maturation. The soils, predominantly granitic, but also clayey and sandy, contribute to the complexity and diversity of the wines produced. Notable grape varieties such as Tempranillo, Garnacha, and Albillo Real are often highlighted, producing robust and elegant reds, as well as fresh and aromatic whites. The winemakers of Madrid are committed to respecting traditions while innovating, offering wines that are sometimes modern, sometimes authentic, winning over an increasingly captivated international audience. The Vinos de Madrid appellation is thus essential for discovering Spanish wine heritage and enriching a wine cellar with wines imbued with Madrid's identity.
