Review:
Light straw. Mineral-laced aromas of lime, grapefruit, quinine and anise, with a hint of jasmine in the background. Tangy citrus and orchard fruit flavors show good depth of flavor while remaining light and brisk. Focused, racy and taut on the finish, with the lime note echoing.-Stephen Tanzer 88 Points
The Palacio de Bornos Estate
The winery was founded and began elaborating wine in 1870 in the town of La Seca, alongside the Appelation of Origin Rueda. In the late nineteenth century, its wines were well known throughout Castilla, expanding both nationally and internationally during the twentieth century.
In 1976, the fifth generation of the Sanz family broke away from the family tradition and started their own project with the construction of a new winery in the town of Rueda, thus beginning the most recent history of Palacio de Bornos. After more than thirty years of solid work, Palacio de Bornos has become one of the most widely renowned brands in the Appelation of Origin Rueda, and is present in the major markets worldwide.
Appelation of Origin Rueda is located in Castilla y Leon and is made up of 72 municipalities, which are located in the south of the province of Valladolid, west of Segovia and north of Ávila.
The character of the appellation is defined by three elements that result in high quality differentiated wines, with a strong personality:
- Grape Variety: Verdejo, indigenous to the area, resulting in crisp, pleasant and highly harmonious wines that invite you to continue drinking.
- Climate: continental with low rainfall, marked temperature contrasts between day and night and spring frosts, providing low yields and high quality.
- Soils: gravelly, permitting great ventilation and drainage.
The permitted grape varieties are: Verdejo, Sauvignon Blanc, Viura, Palomino Fino, Tempranillo, Garnacha, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot
The Palacio de Bornos Vineyards
Palacio de Bornos boasts 220 hectares of their own vineyards, in the towns of Rueda, Pollos and La Seca.
When choosing a plot, the quality of the soil always takes precedence, with several analysis and soil samples being carried out to ascertain in detail its structure, thus ensuring that the vine will develop in the most appropriate soil. The soil of our vineyards is characterized by a calcareous clay subsoil and gravelly top soil, with a high concentration of boulders, allowing for good aeration and drainage, ideal characteristics for the successful development of the vine.
The special commitment to the vineyard have led Palacios Bornos to develop continuous research projects - mainly in the field of clonal selection, vine spacing, rootstock and foliar nutrition - through studies at experimental estates. The results, once positively tried and tested, are applied to the entire vineyard.
The aim has always been to plant the best vines in the best soil, in order to obtain the best wines.

Belle Glos 25th Anniversary Pinot Noir is made from 100 percent Pinot Noir.
A one-time commemorative bottling from Joseph Wagner marking 25 years of Belle Glos, blending the three flagship coastal vineyards: 38% Las Alturas (Santa Lucia Highlands) for power and intensity, 32% Clark & Telephone (Santa Maria Valley) for spice-driven elegance from rare self-rooted Martini clones, and 30% Dairyman (Russian River Valley) for silky brightness off the Pacific.
Cherries, cranberries and raspberries on the nose with baking spice and a hint of nutmeg. A big, juicy wave of red and blue fruit on the attack, energetic yet restrained, carried by remarkably silky, graceful tannins into a long, seductive finish. Dark cherries soaked in chocolate, sweet tobacco, molasses and hibiscus fill out a suede-like mouthfeel.
