We like to brag that we are vinegrowers and cultivate all of our own grapes. That isn’t strictly true. This Graciano wine comes from Navasentero, a vineyard that doesn’t belong to us. Not feeling ashamed. On the contrary, we’re very happy that our friend Julian Palacios is the winegrower. For those of you who don’t know him, he’s a restless agricultural engineer who spends his days going from vineyard to vineyard collaborating with winegrowers all around the world that trust him to have the best possible grapes. Despite his very busy schedule, he sets aside some time to care for the Graciano grapes in Navasentero’s plot.

From there onwards we try to interfere as little as possible in the natural process of the grape transformation into this authentic Graciano.

Product Description

We have to confess that this Graciano is the only grape that we don`t cultivate. But why, when our friend Julian Palacios knows how to do so perfectly? It is a pleasure to pick the grapes en his Navasentero vineyards and, with the minimun intervention, produce this authentic Graciano wine.

Thanks Julian!

 

As we said above, we couldn’t have found a better Graciano grape. A native variety of Navarra that isn’t cultivated much, making it a minority grape. We’re especially delighted with the 3+1 on the label!

In Detail

Did you know that we’re involved in another vineyard and wine with Julian Palacios? Watch this space but you’ll soon be able to try it. All we can say for now is that it’s an Old Grenache wine from young vines. Intriguing, right?
