Graciano '16
Tasting Notes
An extremely obscure, low yielding Spanish varietal, this robust red delivers notes of violet, cedar and mint on the nose. Structured tannins and ample fruit explode on the pallet, offering subtle hints of cinnamon, clove, and a familiar black pepper spice. A rising star here at Helwig that will not disappoint for years to come.

Pairings
Spiced lamb, brisket, tri-tip, or grilled chorizo. It can also work with non-red meat dishes as long as the flavor is strong enough; blue cheese, blackened Cajun catfish, or spicy black tapenade.
