Intense red cherry color. Aromas of red fruits (strawberry, raspberry) and peach. Notes of pastry framed by fine nuances of vanilla and toffee and a slightly touch of cinnamon. Balanced on the palate, it has a long lasting and satisfying finish.
A great value wine that is an everyday reward.
93% Tempranillo, 2% Mazuelo, 5% Garnacha.
Our most famous wine, the one that best reflects our innovations in ageing, as we started to use hybrid oak barrels (with French oak bases and American oak staves) for LAN Crianza as long as two decades ago, contributing to its unmistakeable character.
Selected from 10 to 20 year-old vines from our long-standing suppliers in the Rioja Alta and Rioja Alavesa subzones. Sloped plots of calcareous-clay soils with good drainage and sun exposure.
James Suckling Review:
Aromas of cherries, sweet spices, tobacco leaves and coffee. Medium-bodied with slightly rough tannins, but pleasingly chewy and spicy. Drink now or hold.
