Artadi 2016 Pasos de San Martin
Tasting Note
100% Garnacha, organically grown from vineyards located in San Martin de Unx, in Navarra, on sloped vineyards at 600m elevation. Bright ruby in the glass, this is a big, energetic, fruit driven Garnacha. Full bodied and rich, the palate is nicely textured with fine-grained chalky tannins and ample freshness. Violets, plums, blackcurrants and cherries engulf the nose and palate, accompanied by subtle orange-peel, herbs, vanilla and a smokey backbone from a small amount of harmoniously integrated French oak ageing. Delicious, it is a wine that has plenty of delicate nuances, but which is full of power and authenticity.
