About Bárbara Palacios Winery

Bárbara Palacios Winery is a family-run establishment located near the San Felices Chapel in Haro, one of the most picturesque areas of the Rioja wine region. The winery is surrounded by family-owned vineyards in Riscos de Bilibio, known for their fertile terroirs. Bárbara Palacios is particularly famous for its Barbarot wine, a distinctive blend of Merlot and Tempranillo that showcases the unique characteristics of the region.

A Legacy of Winemaking Experience

Founded by Bárbara Palacios López-Montenegro, the winery reflects her deep-rooted family tradition in viticulture. With experience gained from prestigious wineries around the world, including Château Recougne in Pomerol, Castello di Poppiano in Tuscany, and Mudhouse Winery in New Zealand, Bárbara returned to her roots in 2005. She began cultivating grapes in the vineyards originally planted by her father, Antonio Palacios Muro, and now utilizes her grandfather José Palacios Remondo’s estate to produce high-quality red and white wines.

Vineyard Composition and Varietals

The winery's first vineyard was established in 1990, covering two hectares of Tempranillo and three hectares of Merlot as an experimental variety. In 1999, an additional seven acres of Tempranillo were planted, reflecting Bárbara’s father’s vision to cultivate grapes that express the terroir's originality. Following this tradition, Bárbara has also introduced Garnacha Blanca and other international varietals to the vineyard, enhancing the diversity of wines produced.

We enjoyed the visit at this small winery, and Barbara's presentation.

Back in Sweden after 30 days of travelling, and lot of memories and a lot of photos J. We want to thank you for helping us with the booking at Bárbara Palacios´ ”Barbarot”. We enjoyed the visit at this small winery, and Barberas presentation. She is really dedicated to her work. It was a bonus to be picked up at our address. We realized that we were the first visitors at her winery, so she will surely improve. Overall for the tour and tasting: 7. After we got the right address to Bárbara, the experience with Winetourism.com was good.
