DV Aires is considered by the winery to be a wine for storage with great aging potential.

When serving it, it is interesting to note that the Descalzos Viejos winery is located in a convent of former Trinitarian monks (The Reformed Order of the Trinitarians Barefoot). Due to landslides, the convent had to be abandoned, but the oldest monks remained there in charge of the orchards. This is where the name of the winery came from, Descalzos Viejos.

The current owners, Paco and Flavio, both architects, told us that during the restoration of the convent, some frescoes were discovered on the main altar of Santa Justa and Santa Rufina, to whom they also dedicated some wines that you can find on our website.

DV Aires has a limited production of 3,920 bottles, making it a unique jewel of the region.
