Varietales Graciano

Graciano grapes from the Monastery's estate surrounding the winery. Alluvial calcareous soils and Mediterranean climate are ideal to grow this indigenous and marginally used grape.

Thanks to the proximity of the vineyard to the winery, the harvest and selection of this rara avis grape is done with extra care before vinification in stainless steel vats and 12 months ageing in American-oak barrels.

Bright cherry-red colour with good depth and bluish hues at the rim.

One distinctive feature of the Graciano is its distinct aroma, stronger than other Rioja varieties. The aromas in this wine are therefore intense redcurrant, red-berry fruit and pink pepper with subtle vanilla and mineral hints.

Full-bodied wine with intense flavours, well-integrated tannins showing the red-berry fruit found on the nose. Long, refreshing finish with excellent balance and harmony.

The intense of aroma of this wine is a perfect ally of iberian ham and a cheese and cold cuts platter, duck magret, lamb and stews.
