Product Details
2005 Finca Allende, Calvario, Rioja
(code: 70100B)
Miguel Angel Gregorio's particular vision of Calvary dates from 1945 and is a
clay/chalk vineyard of no apparent distinction. With Tempranillo vines dating
from this seemingly magical year (not just Peace in Europe but also the birth
date of Artadi's El Pison vineyard) and an ambitious elevage that involves over
20 months in 200% new French oak, there is an apparent risk of over-indulgence.
This does not appear to be the case when tasting the wine; the oak is already
wonderfully integrated, the tannins very fine with layers of fruit, spice and
minerals etched with lapidary care.
