So, pull your trousers up and give yourself a slap. Australian Graciano!!! Usually blended into Rioja’s this is a face smackingly good example of another country doing what the OG country does best. Not cheap…but…not shit.

| Aroma: | Like a Mary Poppins bag in a lolly shoppe on the coast of Cornwall, childhood favourites keep popping out of this wine. Redskins, fairly floss, jubes, it just keeps coming. Even a raspberry Sonny Boy on a sweet summer’s day. Sour gummy bears hint at the juxtaposition of sweet and sour in this wine, all the while you are kept intrigued by the underlying white and Szechuan pepper mix. |
| Palate: | What you smell is what you get here as the nose perfectly integrates into the palate. Bright and exhilarating like riding a bike downhill with no hands for the first time, slowing to a crawl on soft green grass and the bottom of the descent. Smooth, just like the finish of this mouth-watering wine. |
| Drink With: | Curries or spicy Asian style dishes |
| Cellaring: | A fantastic wine to drink when young, however careful cellaring of 5-15 years will be rewarded |
