Description
The 2017 Finca El Palacio is a tribute to the diversity of the Rioja Alavesa vineyard. A blend dictated by its 1969 plantings, it comprises 75% Tempranillo, 20% Graciano, and 5% Viura. Fermented together in French oak vats and aged 15 months in 500L barrels, this wine captures the complexity of its three terraces and unique terroir. Expect layers of flavor and a refined balance, reflecting meticulous hand-harvesting and double selection of grapes. A true nod to Rioja’s origins, showcasing elegance and depth.
