The glass-coating opaque purple 2005 Graciano was aged in new French oak for 18 months. It offers a smoky, spicy, chocolate-accented perfume leading to a full-bodied, opulent, rich wine with plenty of power, ripe tannin, and excellent balance. It will continue to unfold with another 4-6 years of cellaring and have a drinking window extending from 2014 to 2025.
