Artadi Viña el Pison 1996  - First Bottle

Reviews

97 Robert Parker's Wine Advocate -
Spectacular is the limited production 1996 Vina El Pison. Fashioned from a vineyard planted in 1931 on pure limestone, this wine is outrageously rich, complex, and profound. A dense ruby/purple color is followed by aromas of sweet black fruits, vanillin, flowers, and minerals. There are layers of fruit, great flavor extraction, unbelievable finesse, complexity, and elegance. The finish lasts for nearly a minute. Full-bodied and super-concentrated, this compelling Rioja will be at its peak between 2002-2025. Sadly, only 300 six packs were exported to the United States, but it is well-worth seeking out.

About the Producer

Get ready to embark on a journey with ARTADI, a winery with roots deeply ingrained in the heritage and expertise of our ancestors. Founded in 1985 in Laguardia by a group of passionate vine-growers, ARTADI embodies the non-industrial spirit and reverence for the vineyard. In 1992, the Lacalle and Laorden families took the reins and with their unwavering dedication to vine growing and a deep-seated love for the vineyard, they uncovered the distinct characteristics that make ARTADI wines truly one-of-a-kind and a reflection of their origin. This passion led them to expand their project to Navarra (Artazu) in 1996, Alicante (El Sequé) in 1999, and Guipúzcoa (Izar-Leku) in 2015. Join us on a thrilling adventure as we celebrate the tradition and artistry that make ARTADI wines truly special!
