Artuke Finca de Los Locos Red wine
Artuke Finca de Los Locos 2023 is a remarkable red wine that captures the essence of its unique terroir. Created by the talented winemakers Arturo and Kike de Miguel Blanco, this wine is sourced from a distinctive plot on a higher terrace of the Ebro River in Baños de Ebro. The vineyard benefits from sandy gravel soils with a highly calcareous subsoil, an uncommon choice that initially led some to label their grandfather as “crazy” for pursuing this land. The moderately Atlantic climate further enhances the character of the wine, allowing the Tempranillo grapes to thrive.
Crafted using traditional methods, this wine undergoes vinification without stems to ensure a pure expression of fruit. It matures for 16 months in French oak barrels, imparting complexity and depth. On the nose, Artuke Finca de Los Locos presents an unrestrained bouquet of ripe red fruits, complemented by subtle toasted notes from its aging process. On the palate, it reveals a robust character, with strong intensity balanced by a well-integrated acidity, providing a refreshing and lively finish.
This wine pairs beautifully with hearty dishes such as beef goulash, stews, aged cheeses, and game meats, making it a perfect choice for those cozy dinners or special occasions. Experience the unique flavor profile of Artuke Finca de Los Locos and indulge in the rich heritage of Spanish winemaking.
