Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The entry-level red 2022 Viñas de Gaín Tinto comes from a dry and very warm year when they started picking on September 15. As in previous years, it contains a small percentage of white grapes, 2% to 4% Viura. It fermented in stainless steel and matured in 225-, 500- and 600-liter barrels for one winter (about 10 months) and a further year in stainless steel and oak foudre. Tasted next to the 2023, this looks paler and more delicate. It is medium-bodied, fine-grained and tasty. 45,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in June 2023. Starting this year, the plots that used to be bottled separately as a collector's range now go to Viñas de Gaín, which wants to be the new Pagos Viejos.

Description
Artadi Viñas de Gain is an exclusive red wine, made from 100% Tempranillo grapes.
It comes from vineyards located in the three towns of Laguardia, Elvillar de Álava and Leza in Alava.
These vineyards are located at an altitude between 450 and 700 meters and with an average age between 20 and 30 years located in clay-limestone soils, an ideal soil for exquisite grapes!
On a gastronomic level it is the ideal accompaniment to dishes such as red meats with sauce, sausages, roasts, grilled lamb, acorn-fed Iberian ham, and beef.
Elaboration
The grapes are harvested by hand. Small boxes are used to transport the bunches to the winery. Once there, a meticulous selection of clusters and berries is made.
The vinification process is carried out in open wooden tanks and cold maceration takes between 24-48 hours. Alcoholic fermentation then takes place for about 12 days with daily pumping over and punching down.
The wine is then placed in French oak barrels for malolactic fermentation and aging for 12 months.
Taste
Artadi Viñas de Gain is a red wine with volume on entry, and on the palate, the ripe fruit that anticipated the nose takes center stage.
It maintains a spicy and good acidity with herbal sensations and damp earth. In its youth, the marked notes of an impeccable aging can be appreciated.
A complex, elegant and linear wine
Artadi Viñas de Gain is a red wine from La Rioja, the product of organic viticulture, based on the utmost respect for the environment. It is rich in aromas, shows a perfect balance, is accessible, with a clean, friendly profile, and with an elegant background.
