Lot #30. Gracia 2000

Description: Consists of 1 Magnum, 1.5L
Score: 96 RP.
"This is a big upgrade for this spectacular micro-cuvee, a true garage wine from a 4.4-acre vineyard. A blend of 90% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc, I always find Gracia to be reminiscent of Ausone. The dense, rich 2000 reveals notes of a spring flower garden intermixed with smoky barbecue meat, blackberries, black currants, and crushed rocks. The extraordinary perfume is followed by a wine of great depth and richness, full-bodied power, and not a hard edge to be found. This velvety blockbuster is just beginning to strut all its stuff, and should age easily . . ." Wine Advocate #189, Jun 2010
Provenance: The Lionne Cellar
Lot Location: Orange County
