Descendientes de J. Palacios

Region:
Spain, Castile and León, Bierzo
Description:
Named after Alvaro Palacios' father, Jose Palacios Remondo, this is a very exciting project, producing wines of vivid fruit and wild herb, fragrant, intense-but-delicate. Cornas-like wild Syrah characters meld with perfumed, slippery-tannined juicy Burgundian aspects. Alvaro and his nephew, Ricardo Perez, have renovated amazing steep-sloped, very high altitude old vineyards into biodynamic masterpieces.
