Why we love this wine:
Calling Rioja fans -- this sumptuous Gran Reserva from the high Rioja Alta and a perfect vintage blew us away. Produced from the best grapes between 20 to 25 years old and aged 24 months in French and American oak barrels, it's muscular yet lean with characteristic aromas and flavours of cinammon, vanilla, leather, and ripe cherry with an underlying hint of cedar.
Winemaker / tasting notes:
Garnet with ruby hues. Aromas of ripe red fruits with spicy notes (Vanilla, cinnamon, fennel, licorice root, leather, cigar box). Full-bodied and round, its mouthfeel is elegant and very well balanced.
L is for Logro̱o, A is for ́lava and N is for Navarra. LAN has been making wine in Alta Rioja since the 70۪s and is always a guarantee of quality and balance.
