Queirón Ensayos Capitales π (pi) Graciano Rioja 2022 Case

Fabulous wine from Queirón - owned by Bodegas Ontanon. Here they make very singular, small production wines such as this. A fabulous varietal Graciano, for centuries a very important blending grape, due to it's perfume, natural dark colour and acidity. Here the team have picked the very best lots to make a modern styled Rioja with a nod to the past. 12 months in mostly second fill French and American oak. Lovely bright plum with a hint of sour cherry and chocolate, big yet with very ripe tannins. Lovely now with some lamb or pork, but sure to age very well. Tiny production.
