We're sorry, but this product is not currently available.
A wine with subtle mineral characters, fine fruits, complex and delicate sequences of spices and tannins with enveloping and caressing volumes.
Artadi is located in the high altitude region of Rioja, Spain. It was founded in 1985 by winemaker Juan Carols Lopez de Lacalle who wanted to produce outstanding Tempranillo from old vines. In its relatively short life the 173-acre Artadi has won rave reviews from such writers as Robert M. Parker Jr. who has called Lacalle Òone of Spain's most creative and brilliant visionaries." Parker added that Lacalle produces Òsome of Spain's (and the world's) greatest wines." The estate produces up to 70,000 bottles a year.

This is very tight and focused with precise tannins that run deep and long on the palate. Character of blackberries, tar and slate. It’s medium-to full-bodied with freshness and excellent focus on the finish for the vintage. From organically grown grapes. Try after 2022.

The perfumed, nuanced and fragrant nose of 2017 Viña El Pisón clearly tells you this wine has something special. It's a very consistent vineyard, the one that seems to deliver irrespective of the character of the year. This wine combines power with finesse. The palate is medium-bodied, and the tannins are very fine with a chalky texture that clings to your teeth and makes the finish long and very tasty. 4,467 bottles were filled in July 2019.
