Graciano

About this grape variety

A traditional Rioja blending grape and the variety behind Portugal's Tinta Miúda. Graciano makes wines of intense colour, marked acidity, firm structure, floral-spice aromatics and remarkable ageing potential. Difficult in the vineyard — low yields, late ripening — but a hero in Rioja Reservas where it lifts the palette of Tempranillo-led blends. Top single-varietal bottlings from Contino and Remírez de Ganuza demonstrate its serious solo potential.
