2016 Gratavinum GV5 from Priorat
A powerful and elegant Priorat with a distinct terroir
The 2016 Gratavinum GV5 is an impressive red wine from Priorat. Gratavinum cultivates old vines on the characteristic llicorella soils that give the wine its distinctive minerality and depth. The 2016 vintage is considered one of the best of the decade and combines ripe fruit with refinement, freshness, and structure.
A blend of Garnacha and Cariñena. Cabernet Sauvignon, and Syrah produces a wine with great concentration, elegant tannins, and a long, mineral finish. Aging in French oak barrels adds extra complexity without overpowering the fruit. The result is a harmonious Priorat with impressive aging potential.
