Artuke La Condenada Rioja 2023
DOZEN: $2,916.00 or $243.00 each
… this is the latest in a string of brilliant releases from an exceptional, 0.75-hectare parcel in Baños de Ebro. Showing the effortless concentration of its centenary vines, it's a complex, layered assemblage of Tempranillo with 20% Graciano, Garnacha and Palomino. Balanced, floral and refined, it's a purposeful, self-confident red with underlying grip and focus, negligible oak, layers of plum, redcurrant and black cherry and a hint of good reduction. One to keep. 2029-40 (99) TIM ATKIN MW
Floral and mineral, showing freshly picked lavender, violets, peppercorns and blue fruit. Round, friendly tannins bring lots of precision and tension. A blend of tempranillo, graciano, palomino fino and garnacha. From vines planted in 1920 at 550 meters in Banos de Ebro. Drink or hold. (98) ZEKUN SHAI, jamessuckling.com
