A fresh and refined red with cherry and berry character, fine tannins and hints of orange peel. Medium body, light tannins and a bright finish. Delicious now.

Description
The Remondo winery Rioja Palacios is a family business that has been linked to wine production for four generations. One of the most notable members of this family is Álvaro Palacios, who also produces wines in Priorat (L'Ermita, Finca Dofí, Les Terrasses) and El Bierzo (Corullón, La Faraona, Petalos). Now with Remondo they have a very modern Rioja house on the map.
The young 50/50 blend of Garnacha and Tempranillo is aged for four months in oak barrels to add some complexity while maintaining the freshness and primary character of the wine. It has a nose that combines the floral character of the Garnacha and the more serious profile of the Tempranillo, with the two quite integrated. It is juicy and lively, medium to full-bodied. It has attractive aromas and flavors that are refined and elegant, attracted by floral and red fruit notes, and with very fine tannins that give it a silky texture. The mouthfeel is quite soft, with integrated acidity. A great affordable Rioja.

Wijnhuis
Álvaro Palacios, after successes in Priorat and Bierzo, returned to his native Rioja in 2000 and took over the management of the family business Palacios Remondo. He was concerned about the transformation of Rioja into a region with large volumes, excessive use of wood and little attention to terroir. Palacios sought change and advocated for a reorientation from Rioja Baja to Rioja Oriental, a name change that was implemented in 2018. This was accompanied by adjustments in maturation rules and geographical classification. Rioja Oriental is known as a warm area where bulk wines are often produced, mainly with garnacha due to its southern exposure. Despite this, Álvaro Palacios decided to completely replant the family vineyards, originally planted with tempranillo, with old garnacha vines. This was a considerable effort, but for Palacios it was the only right way to produce quality wine in this area.
