2011 Alvaro Palacios Terrasses Velles Vinyes

Media Reviews

Luis Gutierrez

The 2011 Terrases is more or less 50/50 Carinena and Garnacha and is the wildest wine in the portfolio, it is his other regional wine, a wine with a slightly more elegant-rustic profile (think of a British farmer dressed in corduroy trousers) with notes of tree bark, damsons and flinty aromas. It has an austere palate with pungent flavors, ultra-fine tannins, very supple with good acidity. Drink 2014-2018. 89 points
