Brilliantly polished and juicy, dark wild berries and a fine-grained.

Winemaker Description
A Tempranillo with a small addition of 5% Viura, i.e. white grapes. This is not only unusual on the Côte-Rotie of the Northern Rhône, but also in the Rioja and the Ribera del Duero. The base wine already shows why the future of this prestigious region lies in the high altitudes of Rioja Alavesa. The cool nights up here create a unique freshness, a purity of fruit and wonderful floral-playful aromas.
Clearly violet to the black cherry, also blueberry, just very delicate hints of plum underneath, overall a lot of bright, fresh fruit, stimulating and clear as a bell. And the mouth is just as brilliantly polished and juicy, dark wild berries and a fine-grained, but by no means softened tannin structure make Artuke's quality and ripeness standards clear even in the basic segment. A beautiful, even slightly salty, precise high-altitude Tempranillo full of fruit and without any influence of wood. Winemaker Description.

A strong cherry-red accented by purple. There is a layer in the middle that is really luminous and clean. Extremely nimble on the glass. The combination of the floral accents and the berry undertones is an explosion of flavor. Bright and clean thanks to carbonic maceration. The tannins are almost undetectable on the palate, and the wine is smooth and pleasant.
