Winery
Bodegas Palacios Remondo
Founded in 1945 by José Palacios Remondo, the father of Álvaro Palacios and of Chelo, who currently manage the family winery.
Álvaro Palacios is one of the outstanding names of the Spanish wine scene. Under Palacios’ 3 wineries Bodegas Palacios Remondo – Rioja, Álvaro Palacios – Priorat, and Descendientes de José Palacios – Bierzo he has created great wines like L’Ermita in Priorat and La Faraona in El Bierzo.
The winery is located in the municipality of Alfaro (under the old Baja or Oriental) and its geographical location clearly provides it with a Mediterranean climate, with much more heat and les rain that in La Rioja Alta. This change results in the cultivation of the Grenache as the prevailing variety, since it withstands heat better.
