Descendientes de J. Palacios Pétalos 2012

Bierzo, Castilla-Leon, SpainPétalos is all about its old vine (60-years plus) mencia grapes farmed bio-dynamically on several small, rocky slate-y hillside plots worked by Álvaro Palacios and Ricardo Perez Palacios, his nephew and co-proprietor. The attack is juicy love the warm, earthy nose and dark berry fruit flavours and tannins and textures that melt into the fruit. You will drink the entire bottle.Tasted: 22 January 2015Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
