2006 Artadi Vinas de Gain, Rioja DOCa
(code: 70146B)Made from 100% Tempranillo on Rioja Alavesa limestone, Vinas De Gain goes from strength to strength. A tricky vintage, very hot in the first week of September, after rather a disappointing August, 2006 was ‘rescued’ by perfect conditions in the second half of September. The wine exhibits generous notes of hedgerow, wild strawberry and Indian spice, with the French oak affording structure and grip. The ripeness of fruit is tempered by the finely-knit tannins and the acidity is finely balanced. Black fruit and tea feature in my tasting descriptions .A classic and traditional match for suckling lamb.
