Product description for Tentenublo Escondite del Ardacho, Veriquete 2019
Information about the wine
The grapes come from a 0.4-hectare single vineyard in Viñaspre in the Rioja Alavesa subzone. The plot is located at an altitude of 595 meters and consists predominantly of limestone marl and sandstone soils. The vines, trained in the traditional bush method, are between 52 and 112 years old. It is a classic blend of Tempranillo (80%), Garnacha (10%), and other white wine varieties (10%). The grapes are harvested together, and 20 percent is fermented with the stems. The wine is aged for 9 months in used 500-liter barrels.
Colour
Cherry red
Nose
Veriquete 2019 has a cool and extremely fresh nose, even though the vintage was a warm one in Rioja. The complex bouquet consists of crisp red and dark fruit, herbs, and an earthy minerality.
Palate
The wine displays an excellent balance of lively acidity and aromatic intensity. It has length, grip, and fine-grained tannins. There is no hint of wood at all, but the minerality is all the more noticeable. It is truly impressive how winemaker Roberto Oliván’s emphasis on freshness and drinkability goes hand in hand with depth and complexity. This is a red wine in the typical Tentenublo style: elegant, precise, stripped down to the essentials, marked by terroir, and full of character. There is nothing overripe or heavy about it; instead, it remains vibrant, aromatic, and drinkable.

Score: 93+
A single vineyard that started in 2016, the 2019 Escondite del Ardacho Veriquete comes from 0.4 hectares of old vines between 50 and 105 years of age planted with 80% Tempranillo, 10% Garnacha and 5% each Viura and Malvasía on red sandstone and a small part of white soils where the white grapes are at close to 600 meters in altitude. It fermented with 40% full clusters in stainless steel (all the wines with indigenous yeasts) and matured in second-use 500-liter French oak barrels for nine months without racking. This is a little more austere on the nose; it’s serious and reveals very good balance in the palate with good ripeness and freshness, fully developed flavors of berries and herbs and completely integrated oak. 1,767 bottles were filled in September 2020.
