Descendientes de Jose Palacios : Las Lamas 2023

The Las Lamas vineyard sits on a steep slope below the winery and has a greater amount of clay in the slate soil. I usually prefer Las Lamas to Moncerbal, but in this more difficult vintage, Moncerbal shows more charm. Tasted en primeur, it's powerful, with punchy freshness and a savoury, almost saline note, with fine textured tannins. It needs time, for sure.
