Sinodo garnacha / graciano 2020, Rioja

The idea behind this 70/30 blend of garnacha and graciano is to showcase the village of Ausejo according to Roberto Monforte, combining grapes from la Antigua and Valderete parcels. Aged in old wood, it’s a Mediterranean style red with pine and rosemary aromas, savoury tannins, sappy fig and bramble fruit and a very good concentration.
