2017 vintage. Waay too young. Lots of bright cherry and woodland flavors. Smooths out a bit on the finish.

Complex yet approachable with plenty of fruit. Paired nicely with tapas and seafood

16/20 (89/100) Свежий и ягодный аромат вишни с косточкой, малины, сливы и ванили. Тельное с высокой кислотностью и довольно интенсивными, мелкозернистыми танинами. Хорошо, но от Паласиоса ждёшь какой-то комплексности, а её здесь нет.

A really beautiful color leads to a nose of bright cherry but a palate that goes from fruit to herb to even a sweetness of vanilla.

La Montesa by trailblazing winemaker Alvaro Palacios at the helm of the family estate Palacios Remondo in Alfaro, Rioja Oriental/Rioja Baja, the sometimes snubbed, southernmost subzone within the Rioja appellation. Fruit is sourced from from Palacios Remondo’s eponymous 90-hectare vineyard on the northeastern slope of Monte Yerga, at an altitude of 1,800 feet. Fresh, elegant, refined, structured. Juicy fruit, spicy finish.

Fruity and harsh. Not a good wine. Inelegant Rioja, not worth purchasing.

Nice balance. Would buy again. Mild with lingering flavos
