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.
James Sucking-Rioja, Spain- ¨The crushed-blackberry, violet and sandalwood aromas with dried black tea are so enticing, The fruit and tannin texture to this is impeccable, as it just folds together on the palate and delivers a perfect balance of fruit and texture. Dances on your palate.¨¨
