About Artuke La Condenada

Artuke La Condenada is a red wine produced by Bodegas y Viñedos Artuke in Baños de Ebro (Rioja Alavesa), D.O. Ca. Rioja.
 

Bodegas y Viñedos Artuke is a small family-run winery with a century-old tradition of cultivating vineyards. It was in 1991 when Miguel Blanco began his personal project of turning his fruit into wine. Later on, his two sons (Arturo and Kike, the acronym of whose names makes up the name of the winery) took over the company.

Bodegas y Viñedos Artuke has 22 hectares of vineyard, distributed over 32 plots between the municipalities of Baños de Ebro and Ábalos. The differences in climate due to the altitude and the types of soil make each wine subtly different. These wines are made ensuring utmost respect in the vineyard, using biodynamic methods and with as little intervention in the winery as possible. The result: wines with a great deal of character that clearly demonstrate the purity of each terroir.
 

 

Artuke La Condenada is a wine made with Tempranillo, Grenache Tinta, Graciano and Palomino grapes, from an old vineyard planted in 1920 in sandy soils with a sandstone subsoil, at an altitude of 520 meters.

They are harvested by hand and placed in 20 kg boxes. Once in the cellar, they pass over the selection table and are destemmed and selected by hand, berry by berry. Vatting is performed by gravity into a small 2000 liter tank, where it ferments and pigeage is carried out daily. The malolactic fermentation takes place in 500 liter French oak barrels. This wine is aged in 600-litre French oak fudres for 14 months. The wine is bottled after a gentle filtering and without stabilizing.
