La Faraona 2022 is one of the most exclusive and prestigious wines in Spain, made by Descendientes de J. Palacios in the Bierzo region. This wine comes from a tiny plot on a steep slope in Corullón, a unique vineyard known for its slate soils, which give the wine marked minerality, finesse, and tension. The viticulture is done manually under extreme conditions and with very low yields, ensuring the quality of the final product. The wine is primarily made from the Mencía variety, complemented by small proportions of traditional white varieties, maintaining the historical tradition of Bierzo. Fermentation takes place with indigenous yeasts in open vats, and the wine ages for about 20 months in barrels, aiming to respect the expression of the terroir. On the nose, La Faraona presents great complexity, with aromas of fresh red fruits, flowers like rose and violet, herbs and spices, along with a remarkable mineral character. On the palate, the wine is extraordinarily elegant, fine, and precise, with silky tannins and surprising freshness, culminating in a long and delicate finish. This cult wine is comparable to the great wines of Burgundy and has an enormous aging potential, making it an ideal choice to accompany fine cuisine, delicate meats, or complex dishes.
