LAN Rioja Reserva DOCa

A classic Rioja Reserva that fully exploits the strengths of Tempranillo: ripe red fruit, subtle spice and the characteristic vanilla note of American oak.

Bodegas LAN is located in the heart of Rioja Alta, one of the most prestigious sub-regions of the DOCa Rioja. The winery stands for consistently artisanal winemaking with a focus on the classic Rioja style: Tempranillo as the backbone, complemented by Mazuelo for color and structure, and Garnacha for richness.

In the glass, the Reserva displays aromas of sour cherry, blackberry, and dried herbs. After 12 months in American oak barrels, vanilla and a hint of coconut emerge—softly integrated and not overpowering. Two further years of bottle aging soften the tannins: medium body, velvety texture, and a spicy finish with good length.
