“The 2019 Gracia is a blend of 70% Merlot, 25% Cabernet Franc, and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon. Deep garnet-purple in color, it features tantalizing scents of dark chocolate, black cherry compote, and blueberry pie with touches of cedar, violets, and star anise. The medium to full-bodied palate has a rock-solid structure of grainy tannins with bold freshness to counter the muscular fruit, finishing with great length. Temptingly gorgeous now, give it 3-5 more years in the cellar and enjoy it over the followed 15 to 20-years+.”
“Very pure aromas of blackberries and blueberries with some violets. Full-bodied with a tight, chewy center-palate that shows rather muscular tannins. This is structured and solid with polish. Try after 2026.”
