Valenciso epitomises excellence, crafting timeless expressions of Rioja that capture the very essence of the region's terroir.
Graciano stands as a rarity, crafted only in extraordinary vintages. In Rioja, where Graciano grapes constitute just 2% of plantings, this small-batch production is exceptionally distinctive and treasured. This exquisite wine unveils complex aromas of red cherries, black fruits and hints of violet. It’s lively on the palate but with soft tannins and spicy nuances.
The grapes were hand harvested from just a few plants within the Haro and Ollauri vineyards in Rioja Alta. Once at the winery, only the best grapes were selected and fermented with indigenous yeasts in concrete tanks followed by 24 months aging in oak barrels. This wine is not fined, nor filtered.
