Tasting Notes
This Grenache based Rioja from Rioja Oriental is juicy and luscious, with notes of crunchy summer forest fruits and orange peel that meld with Mediterranean herbal undertones.
History
Palacios Remondo is a family-owned winery based in Alfaro, run by lvaro Palacios. After making his name in Priorat and Bierzo, lvaro returned to his ancestral home in Rioja and took over the winemaking reigns at Palacios Remondo. He is one of the high-profile winemakers (along with Telmo Rodriguez) determined to champion Garnacha, particularly from old bush vines.
Regional Information
Rioja Oriental is the warmest and most easterly part of the Rioja appellation. The soils here are silty and alluvial and the semi-arid Mediterranean climate is well-suited to growing Garnacha. Situated on the hillsides of Monte Yerga, La Montesa vineyard produces fragrant and aromatically intense wines, with a lightness that is often Pinot-esque.
