Propiedad Viñas Viejas D.O. Ca. Rioja
Bodegas Palacios Remondo, has a history spanning 350 years. Álvaro Palacio, the winemaker, has become very popular and is now regarded as one of the best winemakers in Spain. Álvaro has been named decanter of the year. The vineyards are organically grown on the high altitude Rioja oriental slopes.
Propiedad Viñas Viejas, made from 100% Garnacha vines some being very old, has a discreet impression. However, a single sip reveals its outstanding qualities with class and elegance. The taste is extremely long-lasting and complex. With the finest of tannins, it caresses the palate with lovely extracted sweetness. It is worth decanting the wine, so that it completely unfolds a wealth of flavours reminiscent of Provençal herbs and ripe summer fruit.
