- Ripe red fruit
- Almond blossom & white florals
- Smooth & velvety mouthfeel
Bright cherry red. Intense and complex in aromas. Aromas of ripe red fruit, enveloped in white flowers, almond blossom and broom. Touches of cinnamon and resinous notes. Velvety on the attack, smooth and delicate. It is elegant, balanced and harmonious on the palate. A long finish, leaving a pleasant aftertaste that encourages you to take another sip.
92% Tempranillo and 8% Mazuelo. Selected vineyards in the Rioja Alta and Rioja Alavesa.
Fermented in stainless steel tanks, with temperature control to ensure that it doesn't go over 28C to avoid losing the aromas from the grape. Three weeks' maceration with frequent pumping-over to ensure a good colour extraction. 18 months in hybrid barrels of French and American hybrid barrels that combine American oak staves - giving vanilla elegance - and French oak bases, which provide touches of spice. LAN Reserva remained a further 20 months in the bottleto complete its rounding off.
