Palacio Quemado Los Acilates 2016

The elegant, floral and perfumed 2016 Los Acilates reflected a cooler year with a longer growing season, which resulted in higher yields that achieved perfect ripeness. The aromas and flavors are precise and pure, and there is a sense of harmony that I like very much. The spectrum of aromas is about red fruit and flowers with just a pinch of spices. The palate is very elegant, with fine-grained tannins and a dry, chalky texture that I often associate with limestone soils. Delicious! 7,000 bottles produced. - Luis Gutiérrez. 

Lovely purity to the overt brambleberry pie and blackberry essence. Lots of violet and elderberry reduction. The palate has soft, fleshy appeal, and the tannins are succulent, paving the way for a fruit-driven finish. Drink now.
