The 2007 Corullon Las Lamas was also aged in 100% new French oak. It proffers a compelling bouquet of sandalwood, mineral, Asian spices, incense, lavender, black cherry, and black raspberry. Satin-textured, multifaceted, and intense, it is full of finesse, elegance, and impeccable balance. It can be approached now but will continue to evolve for several more years. Drink this hedonistic offering through 2022.
Descendientes de Jose Palacios was founded in 1998 by Alvaro Palacios. It has steep hillside vineyards ranging in age from 60-100 years planted to 100% Mencia, the indigenous grape of cool-climate Bierzo. The vineyards are biodynamically farmed and the wines are bottled without fining or filtration.
