Pago de Tharsys

Wines and Cavas since 1808

Pago de Tharsys is a small, boutique bodega owned and

managed by Vicente García and his family and dedicated

to producing wines and Cavas of the highest quality.

Founded officially in 1999, the winery is built on an old

cellar which dates as far back as 1808 and is today used

in the ageing of the wines and Cavas.

Set in 13 hectares of limestone and clay, the bodega is

situated some 30 miles west of Valencia in the

Denominación de Origen known as Utiel-Requena.

Cava dominates the production and in 2005 they won the

award for “Best Cava in Spain” for their Brut Nature. They

also have a unique range of both reds and whites

including some exquisite blends produced from the

indigenous Bobal grape.

The Name

Pago is the strictest of classifications among wine and

Cava producing and is the equivalent of the French

Chateau.

Tharsys, on the other hand is a tribute to the Greek

Conqueror who founded the local town, Requena in 1531

BC.

Then…

… and now.
