Artesa (ahr TESS uh) means "craftsman" and connotes "handcrafted" in Catalan, language of Barcelona and their owner, Codorníu, one of the world's largest and oldest wineries. Ruby with sweet berry fruit aromas and floral notes. On the palate cranberry and cherry flavors with spice. Fine savory tannins medium finish ending with mineral notes, nice value.

Ruby with red berry fruit aromas and some floral notes. On the palate cranberry and sour cherry flavors with spice and savory tones. Fine tannins on medium finish offers reasonable value.

This was really nice. Very interesting winery. Didn't get a photo of all 5 wines tried but their two pintos and two Chardonnays were really good. Their reserve cab was alright. The wine is all high price point (25 - 60) but the non reserve chards and pinots are worth it

Plush and balanced. red fruits with plenty of spice on the palette. Exceptional toast and caramel flavors on the finish. All an all, a warm with slutty ambitions.
