2013 | Marciano Estate | Terra Gratia

M Red Wine is a rich and layered Bordeaux blend that balances the density and power of our vineyard’s Cabernet Sauvignon with the silky texture and perfumed aromatics of our best blocks of Cabernet Franc. This wine’s lush flavors and supple structure make it generous in its youth while allowing the wine to age gracefully for many years to come

Reviews:

• Wine Advocate: The 2013 Terra Gratia is a proprietary blend of 39% Cabernet Sauvignon, 31% Merlot and the rest equal parts Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot aged 22 months in one-third new French oak. A plush Bordeaux-like wine with lots of structure, elegant licorice, unsmoked cigar tobacco as well as tobacco leaf, and plenty of black currants and cedar wood, it is medium to full-bodied, delicious and best drunk over the next 10-12 years.

• Vinous: The 2013 Terra Gratia is soft, plush and inviting. Dark red fruit, spice and sweet floral notes give the 2013 its aromatic lift and brightness. This is a gorgeous, silky St. Helena Cabernet Sauvignon that is also quite approachable for the year. Drink it over the next decade or so.
