Bierzo is one of the Spanish's most exciting wine regions. It is part of the province of Léon, a region that has been revolutionised, almost single-handedly by the winemaker Alvaro Palacios, who utilises old vines to fashion some exquisite reds.

The wine is made from vines aged between 40 - 90 years old grown on schist soils on perilously steep vineyards. 

Pétalos del Bierzo displays beautiful aromatics of black fruits, spices, tobacco leaf and incense. On the palate it is juicy, silky and full of wild berry notes.

      ★★★★★

      A good selection. Perhaps could have done with a little more cheese - but it was perfect for 2 for lunch or a light meal.

      I’ve been looking to buy the Albariño wine served at Iberica for ages. Now they sell online. Delighted. Easy to order. Love the restaurant.
