Quite unique, 100% Graciano. Deep dark red in color. Aromas of dried spearmint, muddled black fruit, smoked meats, leather, tar. Nice full, round mouth feel. More wood characteristics are present on the palate, still a hint of newish oak, with dried blackberries. 14.5 ABV, medium plus acidity, medium plus grainy tannins. Finish is long. Quite excellent. Research suggests that Graciano as a single varietal is quite rare, and this producer has a interesting story to tell.

Немного закоытое: пряный бальзамический тон, специи, солонина. Во рту среднетелое ближе к полнотелому, шелковистые танины, хорошая кислотность, мясистое. Во вкусе концентрат черных фруктов, немного копченых тонов

At 10 years old, this was the smoothest Rioja I have tasted. Mild bouquet with dark ruby color. Just wonderful to sip. Accompanied a brisket meal and was a perfect pairing. Drank in November 2024.

Even with 9 years of bottle age there’s still a lot of youth in this #rioja #riserva 100% #graciano. Purple/red fruit on the nose, a touch reticent. Active on the palate with lively acidity and tannins continue to build with each sip. So youthful I’m eager to try the 2001 vintage of from this producer that I bought recently.

Nice ruby color with some bricking at the rim. Smells of cranberry and baked cookies and spices. Round soft tannins and light acidity, medium finish.

17.5/20 (93/100) Элегантный аромат чёрных ягод и шоколада. Высокая кислотность и довольно интенсивные, но деликатные по текстуре танины. Насыщенное во вкусе. Отлично!
