Viñedos del Contino (CVNE)
Rioja Contino Variedad Graciano
La Rioja Alavesa, La Rioja, Spain
Aged for 14 months in new oak barrels 28% American and the rest French. Deep Ruby with aromas of berry fruit, floral, spice and flinty notes. On the palate flavors of plum, blueberry and cherry with licorice and vanilla spice, well balanced. Soft fine tannins, long finish ending with fruit, mineral and slight oaky tones. Very Nice!

This is the bomb! What a beautiful wine. Power and grace. What an achievement by Contino. This grape is hard to grow well. It’s name is literally ‘no thank you’ in Spanish!
