Wine Front gave this blended special an 91/100 as outstanding being a wine of superior character and style. And they are right on the money with this one.
Tim describes this as a 'medium to full body wine that's balance is better than Houdini on a tightrope while crossing the Grand Canyon'. In other words it's very exciting and yet at the same time quite comforting. Here at ValeVino we say 'it's for those seeking excitement, and loving the great hug for achievement after'.
Graciano is used mostly in blends with Tempranillo in its native Spain bringing complimenting rose petals, spice and big juicy red fruits. It is prized for the spiciness, acidity and tannin that it gives as the minor component in red wine blends.
Tim is an expert in Graciano and only one of a few but growing number of adherents in Australia where it is selectively used. In this case this blend mixes the straight varietal version of the award winning Grenache that Seldom Inn is known the world over for.
A special blend and one we certainly recommend you buy, try and share.
14.4%ABV with screw cap sold in cases of 12 for what we believe is excellent ValeVino value at $220.
