Product description for Artadi Quintanilla 2022 (bio)

Among the many wineries that have become known far beyond Rioja since the 1980s, Bodegas y Viñedos Artadi occupy a special position. Artadi is among the region’s top wineries, producing wines that have come from purely organic vineyards, now also biodynamically cultivated, since the 1980s. In 1985, several families joined together to form a cooperative, but they disagreed, so two of the families, Lacalle and Laorden, took over the winery. The re-establishment in 1992 marked the beginning of Artadi’s consistent rise. This also included leaving the Rioja Winegrowers’ Association, which is why the term “Rioja” is no longer found on wine labels. Artadi is one of the region’s best wineries, cultivating a more modern style. This is also due to the fact that it owns some of the best sites in Rioja, with vineyards like El Pisón and others.

Wine Advocate

Score: 94

Quintanilla, from Elvillar, is usually quite ripe, and the bottled 2022 Quintanilla is darker and feels riper than the 2023 sample I tasted next to it. This vineyard very rich in limestone, and the vigor is limited and tends toward stress, which happened in 2022. It has some slightly dusty tannins and is not as round or ripe as other plots with marked chalkiness from the limestone in the soils. It has 14.68% alcohol and a pH of 3.65. There are 4,000 bottles of this. It was bottled in June 2024.

The 2022 Quintanilla is 100% Tempranillo from El Villar, grown at 600 meters on limestone-rich soils near bedrock. Deep purple in hue, it opens with aromas of black fruit, forest floor, lavender, cherry and pennyroyal. Fluid on the palate, this has notable grip, abundant chalkiness and a flowing, flavorful finish.
