Descripción de Contino GracianoDescription of Contino Graciano

  Contino Graciano 2015, a Graciano monovarietal with the elegance worthy of a French "Château". Although it is becoming more and more frequent, it is not usual to find monovarietals of Graciano. This variety gives  us an intense, lively and aromatic wine. Fruity on the nose, with a predominance of wild red fruits and balsamic backgrounds. Full in the mouth, with nerve and very long, intense aftertaste where the fruits return and also with a certain mineral note.
