The Parcela 12 is made up entirely of Graciano. Graciano, until recently was the colour and alcohol addition to the blend for Rioja in the north. Now, it is very much a stand-alone grape in it’s own right. The single parcela Graciano here is planted on granite soil which adds freshness and minerality to the wine. Matured for 8 months in French oak barrels, the wine has nuances of cocoa and balsamic with hints of sweet spice. This compliments the subtle floral notes and juicy fresh blackberry, plum and red cherry fruits. It is a powerful wine with a full body, smooth almost sweet tannins and an intense finish.

Very deep, dark, lively cherry colour. The typicity of the variety is revealed by the balsamic, herbal aromas of mint or aniseed, accompanied by dark berried fruit, toffee and the spices which complete the range of aromas. On the palate, you can appreciate its body and backbone, preserved in the finish with a lively sensation of freshness. A heavy mouth-feel.
No stabilisation before bottling so there may be signs of sediment. In this case it is advisable to decant the wine before drinking it.

At the time of release, this wine showed a bright crimson red colour. On the nose, aromas of sweet ripe fruit and delicate notes of smokiness.

This wine still has plenty of life in it and should drink very well for the next 10-15 years.
