Product Notes

Bodegas Luis Cañas Selección de la Familia Rioja Reserva is a remarkable Spanish wine that demonstrates elegance and refinement. Crafted in the scenic region of Rioja, it features exquisite layers of ripe dark fruits, vanillin-spice oak, and alluring hints of chocolate. Its full-bodied palate alongside polished tannins result in a smooth texture. Fine acidity and a lingering aftertaste amplify the wine's beautiful expression of the terroir. This wine’s charm lies in its impressive ageing potential, a true reflection of Riojan artistry. It offers an unforgettable drinking experience, ideal to savour over hardy dishes and rich, savoury fare.

Tasting Notes

Complex aromas which combine to give an intense, sophisticated wine. Ripe berry fruits, smoke, raisins and liquor. After aeration, cinnamon and jam notes surface. Full and rounded on the palate, with lovely tannins offset by the glycerine-like character, resulting in a pleasant and fleshy mouth feel. Long lasting and lingering. Delicious!

About the Winery

Bodegas Luis Cañas

Nestled in the heart of Spain's Rioja Alavesa region, Bodegas Luis Cañas winery is a family-owned estate known for its rich legacy and exquisite wines. This hidden gem is no novice in the art of winemaking. Having over two centuries of history behind it, the winery has passed down its expertise from one generation to another, each adding their own distinctive touch to the rich tapestry of its traditions.

Established in 1928 by Luis Cañas himself, the winery started off as a humble yet zealous operation, producing young wines from the local grape varietals. However, an epochal shift occurred in 1989 when Juan Luis Cañas, son of the founding father, took over the reins. His vision and revolutionary approach transformed the estate's focus to producing high-quality, aged wines that mesmerized the connoisseur and novice alike.

Today, Bodegas Luis Cañas has become synonymous with supreme quality red and white varieties, finely matured using a perfect blend of modernity and age-old traditions. The winery offers a range of velvety, full-bodied reds, created from vines aged over 30 years, ensuring distinct flavour. Its white wine varieties are renowned for their delicate aroma and smooth finish - a result of meticulous fermentation control.

Apart from its celebrated beverages, the winery is lauded for its sustainable practices. From using organic fertilising methods to respecting the vine's natural rhythm, every step of the vinification process echoes their commitment towards environment.

While the allure of the wines at Bodegas Luis Cañas is certainly hypnotic, the winery’s scenic vistas and hospitable culture further accentuate its charm. Visitors are often enchanted by the panoramic view of sprawling vineyards against the backdrop of the stunning Sierra Cantabria mountain range. And not to forget, a tour of their state-of-the-art facilities and charming wine cellars is an experience unto itself.

Bodegas Luis Canas, transcends being a mere winery. It offers a journey into a world of sensory delights which is a testament to the compelling alchemy, of passionate craftsmanship, heritage and the visceral beauty of nature.
