Aug. 29, 2008	Alvear Palacio Quemado 2006 Alvear Palacio Quemado 2006 Region: Ribera del Guadiana, Spain > Winery: Alvear Variety: Tempranillo From the winery: "This estate, scattered with Roman remains, is in Alange, just 18 km from Merida. A region of gently rolling clay hills, warm climate and lingering light. Vineyards located at an average height of 520 m (1500+ ft), with a continental climate influenced by the ocean breezes. This is the ALVEAR family's new venture and latest challenge in Extremadura. The venture combines the goal of making quality wines from exceptional soils with the experience handed down throughout generations at Alvear's wineries. Knowledge about ageing and making wines is being applied to a new project based on quality, tradition and respect for the land. The knowledge passed down from generation to generation through the family is being used for this exceptional vineyard - Syrah reaches its potential in Extremadura (Ribera del Guadiana). The Senorio de Alange Syrah is an exquisite example of what is attainable from this grape if the process of winemaking is carefully controlled. Dark violet ruby colour. Bright and clean. Spicy balsamic aromas with plumy and earthy notes. Great flavour intensity, revolve around blackberries and black plums, freshly cracked black pepper. Nice tannins, good complexity, smooth and silky texture." - 08/29/2008	0/5 Stars. 1 2 3 4 5
