Embodying the promise and spirit of the next generation of Spanish winemakers, Alvaro Palacios is consistently heralded for creating some of the top wines of the modern era. One of nine children born to the owners of Rioja's respected Palacios Remondo, Alvaro studied in Bordeaux and worked under Jean-Pierre Moueix at Chateau Pétrus. His estate wines have become a reference point in the seductive region of Bierzo. Of the Petalos, Luis Gutierrez from The Wine Advocate stated it's the Palacio "I'd buy for my cellar" as the wines, dating back to the inaugural release of 2003 just get better with age!
"The 2021 Petalos was lower in alcohol than ever, lighter, with finesse and dreshness, elegant and juicy, with very fine tannins. It should be a long lived vintage with very good balance and freshness" The Wine Advocate, 93-94 Points
