Featured Wine
2019 Gracias
No one could have predicted that the Graciano varietal, which is front and center in this bottle, would have ever made it to Paso Robles. Due to a mistake in a vine nursery a half a world away, wine growers in Paso thought that they were working with a particular clone of Mourvèdre.
When the ampelographers (grape scientists) eventually realized this grape wasn’t Mourvèdre at all, we embraced it for what it was: a serendipitous mistake. We were (and are) thankful to have this special grape as part of what makes Paso Robles a special and unique place to grow wine grapes.
We pass this special wine off to you to enjoy, as a way of saying “Gracias!” for supporting Bodega de Edgar and the wonderful wines of Paso Robles.
