Viñas de Gain Tinto 2019 1500ml Magnum

Wine Description for Viñas de Gain Tinto 2019 1500ml Magnum by Artadi

Colour & Appearance

Luminous, intense ruby red with violet reflections that underscore the youthfulness of this 2019. Particularly brilliant and expressive in magnum format.

Nose

Expressive aromatics with ripe red cherries, blackberries and cassis. Behind these unfold notes of liquorice, graphite and a fine herbal spice. The biodynamic viticulture reveals itself in the precise fruit clarity and mineral freshness.

Palate

Juicy and powerful with 14.5% alcohol, perfectly integrated. The Tempranillo grape presents itself here in its modern, concentrated form: dense, silky texture, ripe yet present tannins, vibrant acidity. Dark berries, chocolate and tobacco merge into a complex flavour profile. The magnum lends the wine additional depth and harmony.

Finish

Long, elegant and spicy with fine fruit persistence. The mineral component remains present through to the end – a sign of the quality of the vineyards.

Terroir & Origin

From biodynamically farmed vineyards in Rioja. Artadi has deliberately foregone the „Rioja“ designation of origin in order to pursue its own uncompromising path to quality. The soils lend the wine its characteristic minerality and elegance.

Grape Variety & Vinification

100% Tempranillo from hand-harvested fruit, vinified in a modern style with respect for the fruit. Ageing is controlled to preserve varietal character whilst building complexity.

Food Pairing Suggestions

Perfect with grilled lamb rack, beef steaks, wild boar ragout or aged Manchego. Also an excellent choice with paella with chorizo or braised oxtail.

Special Features

Magnum format for optimal maturation and special occasions. Artadi belongs to the absolute elite of the region and has made wine history through consistent biodynamic practices and its withdrawal from the Rioja association. A wine that masterfully combines tradition and modernity.
