Product notes
At the foot of Laguardia , between the Sierra de Cantabria mountain range and the sinuous course of the river Ebro, Bodegas Cosme Palacio has kept its pioneering spirit alive since 1894, when Cosme Palacio founded the second oldest winery in the Rioja Alavesa .
Production notes
Alcoholic fermentation: The grapes are destalked but not crushed, and undergo cold maceration before being fermented in stainless steel tanks with automatic control of the temperature, pumping over, and microoxygenation . The malolactic fermentation takes place in French oak barrels, adding layers of spices and a more complex and elegant character. Aged for 12 months in 225 liter lightly toasted, hand cleft new French oak barrels from the very best cooperages in France. The wine remains in the bottle for at least 12 months.
Tasting notes
Deep red with bluish highlights. Very intense and complex aromas, with red forest fruits at the forefront and a background of mineral notes and spices adding a touch of personality. Intense fruit, a deep vein of freshness, concentration and acidity, which reflect the altitude. Its ripeness, and the way it is made, enhance the most expressive side of the grape. Succulent, mouth watering elegance. An exceptional wine, brimming with character, long and full bodied.
