        • Wine Advocate: Even if 2016 is the year of change, there was a new wine already in 2015, the 2015 Santa Cecilia, a wine that might not be offered in some markets. It's named after a plot of Tempranillo that was planted in 1936 on very shallow soils in the village of Elvillar at 480 meters in altitude. They have around one hectare of vines between Lanciego and Elvillar, and they could potentially produce three or four barrels. When they bought the plot in 2015, it was semi-abandoned, so production started with very small amounts. The vinification was the same as for the rest: 24- to 48-hour cold soak, fermentation in open-top oak vats with indigenous yeasts, followed by malolactic in 225-liter oak barrels, where the wine matured for nine months. The oak is still present, and it has good freshness and elegance from the high altitude, where the soils are shallow. There are some rustic tannins that will benefit from food. There are only 300 bottles (one barrel!) of this wine.
        • Wine Enthusiast: Enticing scents of wild berry, blue flower, exotic spice and Mediterranean scrub shape the nose. Elegantly structured, the polished palate delivers blackberry, black cherry, licorice and crushed mint alongside a backbone of smooth, fine-grained tannins.

        Producer Information

        The Artadi estate was created in 1985 by the dynamic visionary winemaker, Juan Carlos Lopez de la Calle. His objective was to seek and nurture the concept that Tempranillo, when cultivated at high altitude, low-cropped, and from old vines, produces extraordinarily rich and profound wines. This, coupled with specific barrel treatments (with minor American oak influences) produces some of Rioja’s best wines.
        Artadi is about purity of extracted fruit with almost Burgundian textures. In fact, critics have often compared these wines to the top wines of Chambolle-Musigny and other top appellations of Burgundy. The key to this level of elegance comes from the cold wines of the Pyrenees which blow from the north. This coupled with moderate temperatures tend to make these wines a study in elegance and power, the iron fist in a velvet glove if you will. They are some of the most extraordinary examples of Tempranillo in the world.
