Priorat<\/strong><\/p>\nLocated in Catalunya, Priorat is only one of two regions, beside Rioja, in Spain that has been qualified as Denominacio d\u2019Origen Qualificada, the highest qualification level for a wine region in Spain.<\/p>\n
DOQ Priorat produces full-bodied and powerful reds; Priorat began garnering international attention for their product during the 1990s, and the popularity internationally has not abated. The vineyards themselves are typically terraced between 100m and 700m above sea level encompassing an area of 19.783 hectares.<\/p>\n
Priorat wines are known for their red Garnacha from the older vineyards. The Garnacha has been the steadiest of the varieties sold, while wines with Syrah have gained market share in the last few years at the expense of Carinena varietals. 96% of the planted vineyards are red varietals, with only 4% of the existing vineyards with white.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”14553″ img_size=”400×200″ alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n
Alvaro Palacios<\/strong><\/p>\nBorn in 1964, Alvaro Palacios spent his childhood in his parents\u2019 bodega, Palacios Remondo, in Rioja Oriental.<\/p>\n
His pioneering vision to make Great Classic Wines led him to Priorat<\/strong>, in Catalonia. Through his world-class wine production, notably \u2018l\u2019Ermita\u2019, Alvaro Palacios has reinstated the reputation of the wild, isolated region of Priorat into a legend in its own right.<\/p>\nIn the late 90s, in search of a new challenge, this time joining forces with his nephew Ricardo Perez Palacios, his passion led him to Bierzo<\/strong>, a relatively recent appellation in the region of Castilla y Leon. Alvaro Palacios launched Descendientes de J. Palacios, where through their continued hard work and dedication, the duo has succeeded in creating top-quality wines.<\/p>\nOn the death of his father in 2000, Alvaro Palacios took over the helm of the Palacios Remondo in Rioja<\/strong>. He has since brought new dynamism to the family winery.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"1.45ha vineyard located in Gratallops – Velles Vinyes\/Old Vines (80-109 years)<\/p>\n
“This is mesmerizing to smell with a bouquet of flowers that flow out of the glass, combined with black and blue fruit. Full body. Ultra fine tannins. Driven and vivid. It goes on for minutes. A great Spanish wine.
