Product Notes

Bodegas LAN Xtrème Organic Rioja Crianza is an exceptional Spanish red wine that offers a rich, complex and intense flavor profile. Made with 100% organic Tempranillo grapes, this wine is aged for a minimum of 12 months in French and American oak barrels, and then for another 6 months in the bottle, before being released to the market.

The wine has a deep red color with aromas of ripe red fruit, spices, and a subtle hint of vanilla. On the palate, it is smooth and well-balanced with flavors of black cherry, blackcurrant and a touch of earthy undertones. The tannins are firm, providing structure and length to the finish.

This wine pairs well with grilled meats, stews, and hearty pasta dishes. Overall, Bodegas LAN Xtrème Organic Rioja Crianza is a must-try for all wine lovers who appreciate quality organic wine.

Tasting Notes

This wine is deep ruby in colour. On the nose, there are pronounced aromas of cranberries, red cherries and ripe strawberries coupled with hints of liquorice and baking spice. On the palate, the wine is full bodied with silky tannins and intense flavours of ripe red fruits and spice which are carried by a vibrant acidity onto the lingering finish

About the Winery

Bodegas LAN

The history of Bodegas LAN wines dates back to 1972, the year when the brand set up its winery. LAN stands for Logrono, Alava and Navarra, the three provinces that are part of the DOC Rioja area in Spain. The fact that the brand has the name of its regions is enough to tell you that the wines crafted by it are true representations of the culture and heritage of the regions where they are grown.

The Vina Lanciano vineyard of Bodegas Lan is one of the most breathtaking vineyards in the entire Rioja area. It comprises an area of over 72 hectares and has the beautiful Ebro River at the backdrop. Vines are planted in 24 plots here and this is the area from fruits are sourced to craft the three rare and premium wines of Bodegas LAN – Vina Lanciano, LAN A Mano and Culmen.  

This vineyard is very special because it has a diverse range of soil quality and climatic conditions in different plots, which makes it great for growing different varietals such as the Tempranillo, Garnacha, Mazuelo and Graciano.  Sustainable viticultural practices are followed here to ensure that the grapes are hand-harvested and hand-selected before they proceed to the next stage.

A brief profile of the three premium wines of this brand is given below:

Vina Lanciano - made from 85% Tempranillo, 10% Graciano and 5% Mazuelo; fermented in stainless steel tanks and aged for about 36 months; considered to be the soul of Bodegas LAN brand
