Expect a California Graciano, a grape with deep roots in Spain’s iconic Rioja region. Known for its black cherry, blackberry, plum, violet, pepper, clove, licorice, and dried herb profile, this wine offers high acidity and firm tannins, making it both intense and compelling when managed well. As a varietal, it can be quite spicy and wild, though underripe examples might feel sharp or green. Graciano pairs beautifully with rich foods like lamb, chorizo, grilled beef, roasted peppers, mushrooms, hard cheeses, and dishes seasoned with paprika or herbs. Its natural acidity helps cut through richness while its tannins benefit from the presence of protein or fat. This wine showcases how supporting grapes can shape a Rioja-style wine’s longevity and complexity.
