  • LAN’s Gran Reserva comes from the top selection of the old vine, low yielding vineyards they work with in Rioja Alta. Aromatically and texturally this is spot-on for a Gran Reserva, but this release always has a way of singing in the glass with what seems like a whole extra layer of fruit.

    • Vintage: 2012
    • Appellation: D.O.Ca. Rioja
    • Grapes: 96% Tempranillo and 4% Mazuelo
    • Aging period: 24 Months in oak barrels and 21 months in the bottle
    • Oak: French and American oak barrels
  •  🥘 Pairs well with roasted lamb, red meats, barbecues, fish casseroles, and smoked or aged cheeses.

    (2015) Wine Spectator, 93 pts

    "Creamy flavors of baked currant, fig cake, dark chocolate and black tea are well-knit and expressive in this harmonious red, backed by citrusy acidity and firm, chewy tannins. Ends with a lingering, spiced finish. Tempranillo and Graciano"

     

  •  Bodegas LAN

    Bodegas LAN is a relative newcomer to the Rioja scene, having been founded in 1972. The name “LAN” is an acronym for the three provinces that make up Rioja, Logroño, Alava, and Navarra.

    LAN produces some of the most consistent, value-driven examples of Rioja on the market, and is also is an established leader on the premium side. LAN’s iconic 72 hectare Viña Lanciano vineyard sits on a breathtaking natural meander along the Ebro river and is the basis for most of the company’s top bottlings.

    The spirit of experimentation and innovation permeates the culture at LAN, and winemaker María Barúa is continually pushing the limits and preconceptions people have of the region.
