Wine and Iberian ham. A divine combination

Two family businesses that have been working on their products for several generations. Two products made in the perfect locations: the wine, from century-old vineyards located in the unique landscapes of Segovia; the ham and Iberian sausages in the heart of the Salamanca mountains.

Tradition and innovation at the service of the most demanding palates . This is how we work at Don Ibérico. Just like they do at Bodegas Avelino Vegas , whose products you can find on our website.

And why them?

As you may know, at Don Ibérico we are committed to finding the best producers in the area so that you have the best products at your disposal to accompany your Iberian products. And so far, we are on the right track.

Centenary vineyards

The history of this Segovian winery dates back to 1950, when Avelino Vegas founded the winery in Santiuste de San Juan Bautista. Since then, they have been working with low-yield, century-old vineyards to make their wines.

The soils, with a calcareous and sandy component, are perfect for the production of Ribera del Duero, which thanks to the climate produces a Tempranillo of extraordinary quality.

This same sandy and stony soil is also perfect for the DO Rueda, as it helps to control the natural hydrography of the vineyard. For its part, Verdejo benefits from the temperature jumps of more than 20º that occur in summer, giving it an unrivalled flavour .

A wine for every occasion

Fuentespina Crianza - DO Ribera del Duero

A different Verdejo , this wine is made exclusively from Tempranillo grapes and spends 12 months in American oak barrels. Its violet-red color offers notes of red and black fruits mixed with vanilla, dairy and roasted notes.

Its powerful yet smooth character with a long, fresh finish makes it ideal to accompany 100% Iberian acorn-fed ham and shoulder , as well as stews, rock fish, red meat, lamb, pork, smaller game and aged cheeses.

Avelino Vegas - Golden

This red wine made from Tempranillo grapes and aged in new French oak barrels for 14 months owes its name to the golden ratio. This number represents the perfect proportion, which is the best word to define this wine.

Cherry and maroon in colour, it stands out for its aromas of black fruits and its notes of nuts and spices, finishing with a soft toasted finish . With an intense and powerful flavour, it is perfect to accompany ham and 75% Iberian shoulder and the most traditional Iberian sausages: chorizo, salchichón, lomo. It also goes especially well with grilled meats, lamb or with pasta and rice.

Circe Verdejo - DO Rueda

Finally, a unique wine that surprises when you bring the glass to your nose and fascinates the palate. This time it is straw yellow in colour, pale but very bright.

With its aroma of exotic fruits and white flowers, it provides a fresh and sweet flavour, making it ideal for pairing with any Iberian product , as well as appetizers, seafood and foie.
