From the Adelaida District, the Quench + Temper Graciano Bas Vineyard 2018 is a vibrant expression of this lesser-known varietal, earning an impressive score of 93 points. The wine opens with enticing aromas of ripe black cherries, wild blueberries, and a hint of earthy spice, setting the stage for a palate that is both lush and complex. On the tongue, you’ll discover layers of dark fruit mingling with subtle notes of leather and a touch of vanilla, all supported by velvety tannins and a refreshing acidity that keeps it lively. Ideal for a cozy dinner featuring grilled lamb or a hearty mushroom risotto, this Graciano delivers exceptional quality and character, making it a smart buy for those seeking something unique without compromising on elegance.
