WINE DESCRIPTION
Artuke Pies Negros Rioja is a high-quality red wine produced by the Artuke winery in the Rioja appellation of Spain. The wine is made from grapes grown in the winery's own vineyards, which are located in the foothills of the Sierra de Cantabria mountains. The vineyards are characterized by their unique soil composition, which includes a high proportion of iron-rich clay. The winemaking process involves careful selection of the grapes, followed by fermentation in stainless steel tanks and aging in French oak barrels. The resulting wine is a complex and elegant expression of the Rioja terroir, with notes of dark fruit, spice, and a subtle hint of oak. Artuke Pies Negros Rioja is a must-try for any wine lover looking for a premium Spanish red.
