Quiñón de Valmira Red wine

Discover the exquisite Quiñón de Valmira red wine from the esteemed Bodegas Álvaro Palacios, a true gem from the 2016 vintage. Crafted in the family winery located in Alfaro, La Rioja, this wine is made entirely from Garnacha grapes sourced from a small, 30-year-old vineyard spanning just 3 hectares. The meticulous care of these grapes is reflected in the limited production, with only 1,000 bottles available, making it a rare find for any wine enthusiast.

The vinification process is a labor of love, involving destemming and crushing, followed by alcoholic fermentation in wooden barrels with gentle pump-overs and an extended maceration of 49 days. After the malolactic fermentation, the wine is aged in barrels, allowing it to develop complex flavors.

On the nose, Quiñón de Valmira offers a delightful bouquet of crisp fruits such as currants, orange, licorice, and subtle hints of menthol, creating an inviting and aromatic profile. On the palate, it is exceptionally fresh, with a rich texture and abundant fruit flavors. The finish is perfumed, citrusy, and refreshing, evoking memories of cherries, strawberries, and currants.

This remarkable wine pairs beautifully with steak tartare, venison, game birds, or beef, making it a perfect choice for your next culinary experience. Immerse yourself in the unique character of Quiñón de Valmira—this wine promises to be an enchanting addition to your collection.
