Epistem 3, Jahrgang 2012, von Atlan&Artisan wird von Falstaff mit 92 Punkten bewertet.
„Sein Bukett macht keine Gefangenen: „Überbordend“ ist das richtige Wort. Duftend nach Schokoladentrüffel, eingelegte Brombeeren und Kirschen. Etwas Rauch, Zimt und Muskat kommen hinzu. Herrlich gnadenlos am Gaumen: konzentriert, dabei säurefrisch und stoffig. Trockentomaten, Peperoni. Ein gustatorisches Stakkato. Anschnallen, bitte.
Mit dem Siegel “FALSTAFF-FAVORITE” wurde der 2013er Wein Epistem Nr. 2 von Atlan& Artisan ausgezeichnet. Er erhielt im Tasting grandiose 94 Punkte und folgende Beschreibung:
“Sollen wir meinen, dass dieser Wein hinter seiner Tiefgründigkeit noch immer verschlossen ist? Hinter einer dicken Tür aus Konzentration und immenser Reife auch noch ungeahnte Jugend, also Potenzial steckt? Wir wissen es nicht, sondern verkosten einen Wein mit edlen Gerbstoffen und großer Länge.

2013 Atlan & Artisan Epistem n. 2
A Proprietary Blend Dry Red Table wine from Spain , Yecla, Spain,
Review by Luis Gutierrez
Rating: 93
Drink 2016 – 2023
Once you see the bulky bottle and the wax on the wine they call 2013 Epistem n. 2 you can guess this is a special cuvée and for sure not a shy wine. It’s mostly Syrah with some 30% Garnacha Tintorera with a whopping 15.5% alcohol fermented in 800-liter open stainless vats with malolactic in barrel and aging in 300-liter new Taransaud barriques. The nose feels very perfumed, with floral notes, aromatic herbs, spices and a smoky notes, aromas of tar and shoe polish, and hints of nuts, smoked bacon, black olives and cherries. The palate is full-bodied, and the flavors are ntense, it’s almost salty, with pungent flavors and decadent tannins. A hedonistic bomb. This is a Yecla for fans of Sine Qua Non, very good in its style. 900 bottles were filled just before Christmas 2015.
2013 Atlan & Artisan Epistem n. 3
A Proprietary Blend Dry Red Table wine from Spain , Yecla, Spain,
Review by Luis Gutierrez
Rating: 92
Drink 2016 – 2020
I also tasted the 2013 Epistem n. 3, which is a blend of Monastrell, Syrah and Garnacha Tintorera from a much cooler year which had an élevage in used barrels until it was bottled at the end of 2014. It’s quite perfumed, with aromas of violets and roses mixed with hints of tar, spices and notions of freshness. The palate is medium-bodied, quite balanced, with abundant roasted flavors, quite showy and commercial. 12,000 bottles produced.
2014 Atlan & Artisan Epistem n. 3
A Proprietary Blend Dry Red Table wine from Spain ,Yecla, Spain,
Review by Luis Gutierrez
Rating: 90
Drink 2016 – 2019
The blend of the 2014 Epistem n. 3 which will not be released until late 2016 seems to have stabilized to one-third each Monastrell, Syrah and Garnacha Tintorera (Alicante Bouschet), after different wines in 2011 and 2012. All the vines are dry farmed and the Monastrell is old. It fermented in open top tanks with malolactic in used barriques and barrels of up to 500-liters where the wine matured until bottling unfiltered in March 2016. It has a textbook Mediterranean nose with ripe fruit, aromatic herbs and a liqueur touch, hints of raisins and preserved strawberries. The palate is medium-bodied, with fine acidity, but lacks a bit in the mid-palate. A lighter vintage. 11,000 bottles produced.
