Tasting Note

Medium purple in colour, this wine is made in a fresh, fruit-driven style. The lack of time in oak preserves the brightness of fruit, with ripe red cherry, redcurrant and plum and a juicy and fleshy palate nicely defined by well managed tannins. The wine has a medium body, balanced by well-integrated acidity and a fine mineral touch.

Product Notes

Bodega Lanzaga LZ Rioja wine is an exquisite Spanish creation. Characterised by an intense, ruby-red hue, this wine offers a stunning concentration of black fruits, complementing a potent bouquet of earthy minerals. Rich, expressive notes of black cherries and liquorice grace the palate, seamlessly layered with smooth tannins. Allusive hints of spice and undergrowth add to the complexity of this balanced, medium-bodied wine. Crafted in the vineyards of Rioja Alavesa, the LZ Rioja wine embodies the vibrant intensity of Tempranillo grapes, drawing a perfect harmony of freshness, power and finesse. It's an impressive wine with a gratifyingly long, elegant finish.

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.
