Graciano is one of Spain’s best kept wine secrets – a red grape with thick skins that is a tricky one to grow, which means there’s precious little of it about, even in the vineyards of the Rioja, where it is one of the traditional ingredients in the wine of the same name. This Biio-Organic wine has ruby red color with violet rims. On the nose aromas of wild flowers and ripe fruit, strawberry and blackberries. On the palate it is fresh and fruity, with a good level of acidity and moderate tannins.
