Established in 1942 by Salvador Fariña in Casaseca de las Chanas, just 30 km from Toro, Bodegas Fariña stands as a cornerstone of the Spanish wine industry. The Fariña family is recognized as the founding force behind the D.O. Toro designation. Their dedication to quality, innovative practices, and respect for the unique terroir have shaped their winemaking philosophy. In the late 1960s, Salvador's son, Manuel Fariña, joined the family business after earning his degree in oenology. He played a crucial role in promoting D.O. Toro and served as its first president in 1987.
With a strong belief in the potential of the Tinta de Toro grape, Manuel initiated transformative changes that revolutionized the region's winemaking. Today, the third generation of the Fariña family continues this legacy, blending tradition with innovation. Their vineyards span approximately 300 hectares across diverse soil types, ensuring the cultivation of high-quality grapes. The primary varietals include Tinta de Toro and Malvasía, with the finest grapes handpicked for their exceptional red, white, rosé, and dessert wines. The resulting wines are known for their fresh, fruity profiles, elegant aromas, and stable structures, making them a favorite among wine enthusiasts.

Write a reviewWhat a well-made wine, from my beloved province of Zamora. Take note of "Lágrima" from Bodegas Fariña. How much love is tasted in this wine, I am truly in love with it. And I encourage anyone who reads my review to try it. You should expect a young wine full of fruity nuances that explode in your mouth with a balance that gives you an indescribable pleasure. This is my opinion, not professional, but it is sincere. A virtual hug to the owner and to all of you who work hard at Bodegas Fariña to make a sincere, artisanal wine with a lot of love.
