Grapes: 95% Tempranillo & 5% Viura

Rioja joven-style red; organic, vibrant, and beautifully approachable.

In the terraced vineyards near Baños de Ebro, the de Miguel brothers of Bodegas y Viñedos Artuke craft wines with honesty and spark. Their 2024 Tinto blends youthful Tempranillo with a touch of Viura to deliver a wine that is both expressive and easy-going — fresh in spirit, rooted in Rioja’s heritage, and made for sharing.

Fermented primarily via whole-cluster and partial carbonic maceration, the wine is pressed gently, aged briefly in stainless steel and concrete to preserve fruit brightness and clarity of site. The technique emphasises vitality and character rather than heaviness.

On the nose, you’ll encounter wild strawberry, pomegranate and red cherry, intertwined with hints of fresh herbs and crushed stone. The palate is juicy and clean: bright red fruit meets crisp acidity, fine tannins and a mineral underpinning that carries into a lively, refreshing finish. A wine made for now, perfect with tapas, grilled vegetables or simply good company.
