The Third Twin Graciano 2018
Details
99 Points | RP
“Opaque purple-black in color, it opens with a provocative red berry lift—redcurrants, Morello cherries and pomegranate—over a core of mulberries, wild blueberries, lavender, fennel seed and clove oil, plus a waft of tobacco leaf. The full-bodied palate is built like a brick house, featuring very firm, beautifully ripe tannins and a racy backbone to support the ultra-concentrated red, black and blue fruit layers, finishing with great length and tons of savory sparks. Stunning.” - Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate

“A tiny production if 74 cases, the 2018 Graciano is an absolutely stunning wine. Inky and deep, with huge tannins, the 2018 is packed with inky dark fruit, chocolate, licorice and spice. Readers will have to be patient, as the 2018 is a real powerhouse. The 2018 was done with 35% stems and aged in French oak, 35% new. Readers who can find it should not hesitate, as it is a magical, thrilling wine.” - Antonio Galloni, Vinous
