Krachtige single variety Rioja met een uitgesproken aroma van leer, kruiden en rijp zwart fruit. De smaak is vol, krachtig met evenwichtige, rijpe tannine en een fris zuur in de afdronk.

This is meaty, peppery and intensive, with well handed 20% new wood, plum and damson fruit and an earthy undertone.
Intensely coloured, as Graciano often is, this savory, meaty varietal red comes from Tudelilla and Villamediana and is suitably firm, cherry and well structured. Serious and compact, it needs a plate of equally sturdy food to show at is best.

There are plenty of dark aromas, hints of licorice, smoke, cured meat and a peppery Rhône-ish character that reminded me of the Garnacha but in a darker shade. lt's powerful and concentrated with some dusty tannins that give it some rusticity.
