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. Traditional winemaking, destalking - crushing.Fermentation in stainless steel tanks. 15 days' maceration, with continuous pumping-over to optimise colour extraction. Aged for 14 months in combined American and French oak barrels followed by 9 months of rounding in the bottle prior to release. Tasting Notes: Intense red cherry colour. 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. Made in: Rioja, Spain by Bodegas Lan, S.A. Sweetness Descriptor: Extra Dry Style: Medium-bodied & Fruity Varietal: 93% Tempranillo, 2% Mazuelo, 5% Garnacha.
