Alvaro Palacios - 'Les Terrasses' - Priorat
Alvaro Palacios is a renowned winemaker from Spain who has been producing some of the finest wines in the world for over two decades. His 'Les Terrasses' wine is a true masterpiece that showcases the unique terroir of the Priorat region.
This wine is made from a blend of Grenache and Carignan grapes, which are grown on steep hillsides that are rich in slate and quartz. The result is a wine that is full-bodied, complex, and rich in flavour. On the nose, you'll notice aromas of black cherry, blackberry, and plum, along with hints of vanilla and spice. On the palate, the wine is smooth and velvety, with flavours of dark fruit, chocolate, and tobacco.
Alvaro Palacios has a deep respect for the land and the traditions of winemaking in the Priorat region. He uses only organic and biodynamic farming methods, which allow the grapes to express their true character and flavour. The wine is aged in French oak barrels for 12 months, which adds complexity and depth to the wine.
This wine is perfect for pairing with hearty meat dishes, such as lamb or beef. It also pairs well with strong cheeses and dark chocolate. Enjoy it with friends and family at a special occasion or simply savour it on a quiet evening at home.
