General Information

Palacio del Burgo Reserva 2019 is a Rioja made from 100% Tempranillo grapes. The grapes were gently destemmed and crushed, and fermented at a controlled temperature in stainless steel tanks. Malolactic fermentation followed in concrete tanks. Finally, this red wine was aged for at least 18 months in 225-litre oak barrels followed by a long period maturing to perfection in the bottle.

Burgo Viejo started out in 1987 when five grape-growing families of Alfaro teamed up with the aim of highlighting the distinctive character of their grapes through selective and controlled wine production. The winery uses its owners’ vineyards, which span more than 200 hectares, and only purchases very select batches from a few local grape growers. These ingredients go into making wines that reflect the identity of the terroir of Alfaro.

This is a curious and innovative firm. Its broad product range includes experimental wines produced in small quantities and single-varietals and it uses 500-litre barrels, amphoras, etc. It’s also committed to organic production and is preparing to launch in the near future its ‘single-vineyard’ wines, the top category in the D.O.Ca. Rioja.

The recommended pairing for Palacio del Burgo Reserva 2019 (D.O.Ca. Rioja) is red meats and very mature cheeses.

The winery

Burgo Viejo
Winery

Burgo Viejo was founded in 1987 through the union of five families of winegrowers from Alfaro, who came together to highlight the distinctive character of their grapes through selective and controlled vinification. To achieve this, the winery uses only the vineyards owned by the families, covering more than 200 hectares, and purchases only highly selected batches from a few local winegrowers. With this raw material, it produces wines that reflect the unique character of the Alfaro ‘terroir’.

A curious and innovative brand. Its wide range of wines includes experimental productions of small batches, single-varietal wines, aging in 500-liter barrels, amphorae, etc. It also focuses on organic production and is preparing for the imminent launch of its ‘viñedos singulares’ wines, included in this top category of the D.O.Ca. Rioja.
