Contino Graciano is a single-varietal red wine made from Graciano, produced by the Viñedos del Contino winery located in the Denomination of Origin Calificada (D.O.Ca.) Rioja. This winery, which started its journey in 1973, has a rich history that goes back to the 16th century, establishing itself as the first winery to implement the Bordeaux ‘Château’ style in La Rioja, a tradition driven by the centennial Bodega CVNE.
The Viñedos del Contino estate covers 62 hectares of diverse soils that include sandy-limestone, pebbles, and clay-limestone types, all under the influence of an Atlantic-Mediterranean climate that contributes to the wine's complexity. The term “contino” refers to the historical honor guard that protected the Spanish royal family, highlighting the winery's commitment to quality and tradition.
This wine is not only a product of the terroir but also symbolizes a deep cultural and winemaking legacy. Contino Graciano is an ideal choice for those seeking a wine with character and a story to tell in every sip.
