Tasting Note

Intensely dark crimson, this is a rich and complex Rioja with subtle floral notes and sweet oak spices and a very well-defined dark forest fruit core. The elegance is matched by a very structured and defined palate, with powerful yet round tannins, well integrated alcohol, and a persistent finish

Product Notes

Bodega Lanzaga's Lanzaga Rioja wine stands as a testament to the winemaking expertise of Spain's famed Rioja region. This robust wine boasts a deep ruby hue, embodying a captivating blend of dark fruit, spice and hint of oakiness. The bouquet exudes sensuous notes of black cherry, dried herbs and hints of minerality. Mid-palate, it unravels layers of complexity with an impressive tannic structure that's balanced by a vibrant freshness. With careful ageing, it eloquently expresses the terroir of Rioja. This is an enchanting, full-bodied wine, making it the perfect companion for a hearty roast or sharp cheese selection.

About the Winery

Bodega Lanzaga

Bodega Lanzaga is a gem nestled amongst the vine-clad landscapes of Rioja Alavesa, Spain. Rich in culture and bursting with tradition, this boutique winery tells a tale of winemaking craftsmanship that spans almost two decades. Its charm is imbued in the rich Spanish terroir and the age-old tradition of winemaking, nestled in the remarkable landscapes of Basque Country.

The winery was founded by Telmo Rodriguez, a prodigious vintner with a zealous passion for wines. His vision for Bodega Lanzaga was to create wines expressing the personality and vibrancy of the local Riojan landscape. The vineyards, spread across 15 hectares of land, therefore, only grow indigenous grape varieties; this deliberate choice, combined with biological farming principles, results in wines that are undisputed in their quality, finesse, and a unique sense of place.

Bodega Lanzaga's approach to winemaking represents a harmonious blend of tradition and innovation. Their reliance on dry farming and spontaneous fermenting, combined with elevated wooden vats and barrels for aging, acknowledge age-old techniques. While their innovative mindset is reflected in their experimentation with different levels of oxygen exposure and various types of vessels to shape their wines.

Apart from their distinct methods, Bodega Lanzaga is also revered for its warm hospitality. This estate offers a delightful array of wine tasting sessions, vineyard tours, and opportunities to learn about wine cultivation and ageing, beckoning both novices and wine aficionados alike. Every visit to this Spanish retreat will leave you with an intimate understanding and admiration for the Spanish wine culture

Amidst the rising number of modern wineries Bodega Lanzaga continues to stay true to its roots. It holds high its belief that winemaking is an art, a passion, and representation of land and people. The wines introduce you to a story, the story of Rioja, filled with charm, passion and a captivating allure of legacy. After all, Bodega Lanzaga is not just a winery, it's an experience.
