WINE DESCRIPTION
This beautiful red blend from Artadi is a blend of Tempranillo, Garnacha, and Graciano, sourced from the Pagos Viejos vineyards in Rioja Alavesa. The wine is aged for 16 months in American and French oak barrels, giving it an intense and complex flavor profile. On the nose, you will find aromas of ripe berries, sweet spices, and smoke. On the palate, there is a silky texture with flavors of dark cherries, herbs, licorice, and earth. The finish is long and focused, with fine-grained tannins and a hint of minerality. Artadi's Pagos Viejos is a stunningly beautiful expression of Rioja.
