“Also all Graciano, the 2018 Rio Mazos is a deeper, richer wine offering classy notes of cassis and blackcurrants as well as sandalwood, candied violets, and exotic spices. Medium to full-bodied, on the palate, it has ripe, supple tannins, a good sense of freshness, and outstanding length. A beautiful, elegant expression of Graciano, it should keep for a decade.”
