Colección Vivanco Parcelas de Graciano 2015

As with the rest of the range, the 2015 Colección Parcelas de Graciano was fermented in small oak vats and matured in new 225-liter oak barrels for 17 months. There are plenty of dark aromas, hints of licorice, smoke, cured meat and a peppery Rhône-ish character that reminded me of the Garnacha but in a darker shade. It's powerful and concentrated with some dusty tannins that give it some rusticity. 1,809 bottles were filled in June 2017.
