Written Notes

88% Garnacha, 9% Cariñena, 2% Picapoll, 1% Garnacha Blanca and Macabeo. Aged 14 months in foudres and bocoyes.
Less overtly fragrant than Álvaro's Valmira Rioja tasted beforehand. Dense on the palate but with vibrant acidity that prevents it becoming too thick-set. Granular tannins that have a long way to go to reach maturity. The red fruit is still very compact and un-luscious – perhaps that reflects the hard slate terroir. Plenty of time is needed.

Scented, delineated nose but has depth, too. It effuses wet-stone minerality that gives a thin overlay to the red and blue berries. Some spices, briar and hibiscus, too. Juicy and medium- to full-bodied on the palate, which is a little more vertical and powerful than many of Palacios’ reds, highlighted by real tension and tautness here. Goes on and on. Drink or hold.
