Palacio de Primavera
Tinto Rioja
Wine Type: Red Wine
Country: Spain
Region: Rioja
Grapes: Tempranillo
Tasting Notes: Brilliant cherry red color with violet tones; aromas of wild blackberries, subtle spices, and mocha. In the mouth, you will find a balanced, intense and long-lasting wine with velvety tannins.
Food Pairings: Best enjoyed with red meat, Spanish tapas and semi-mature cheeses.
James Suckling: “A fruity tempranillo, showing blueberries and blackberries with some black walnuts and stone, too. Medium to full body, round and creamy tannins and a direct finish. Drink now.”
International Wine Report: “The 2019 Rioja Tinto begins with inviting aromas of orange rind nuances along with shades of red currants and exotic spices that all take shape in the glass. The palate possesses a wonderful sense of freshness with a soft, medium-bodied texture as flavors of red fruits combine with orange rind and damp earth undertones. This is fantastic today, however it should continue to evolve nicely with some short-term cellaring.”
