"The more of a wine is produced, the more it loses its soul"

With wines such as L'Ermita, Álvaro Palacios has had a decisive influence on the international rise of Priorat and the whole of Spain as a fine wine nation. Together with Ricardo Pérez Palacios, he was recently named "Winemaker of the Year 2026/2027" by Baur au Lac Vins. In the Falstaff Talk, he talks about the magic in wine, the potential of Garnacha and which region he would choose today.
