About this product
Dry, Medium Bodied style of TempranilloRioja, SpainThe jewel in LAN’s crown. A Reserva made only in vintages that are classed as excellent from the most prestigious area of Viña Lanciano - Pago el Rincón.
87% tempranillo, 13% graciano.
Pago El Rincón. Viña Lanciano. Bush vines (the traditional form) of 50-60 years of age. Hand harvested. The harvest at Pago El Rincón took place on the 6th of September.
Winemaking and Ageing:
Hand harvested in small baskets with a double selection table. Alcoholic fermentation in small truncated-cone shaped stainless steel tanks and malolactic conversion in very finegrained new French oak barrels from the Tronçais and Jupille forests. It then aged for 22 months in French oak barrels from the Tronçais and Jupille forests with two rackings to favour natural sedimentation to clarify the wine. Aged in bottle for 22 months.
Tasting Notes:
Colour: A very deep shade of cherry red.
Nose: notes of blueberry, ripe cherry and blackcurrant with notes of forest floor, mint, black pepper and cinnamon on a floral background, intensified by the presence of Graciano, which adds great aromatic complexity to the Tempranillo.
Mouth: Very flavourful, rounded, with structure and complextity that lead us to a long finish.
Pairing: Red and grilled meats, spicy dishes. A perfect wine to enjoy with chocolate-based desserts.
