Graciano is a grape variety rarely seen with a star billing and you'd have to wonder why after you've tasted the sublime spicy, aromatic wine that it delivers here. Recently voted one of Spain's 'Top 100 wines'.
Less than.04% of total plantings in Rioja are Graciano which may be to do with the fact that it's tricky to grow and gives very low yields. However, when well looked after, it can deliver wines of exceptional quality with a deep distinctive spicy aroma and a long, long length. This is a sublime wine and fantastic value.
