2011 Bodegas LAN Rioja Edición Limitada

Estate: Bodegas LAN

Region: Rioja, La Rioja, Spain



Tasting Note:April 28, 2017

Deep garnet red almost ruby red. Quite an earthy nose with notes of forest floor, a bit dirty, dark cocoa and a touch of raisin. Similar notes on the palate with solid acidity. Notes of dark red fruits, black currants and some petrol. Well integrated tannins (5.5/10) and medium body. Medium plus to long finish.


Second red wine tasted blind at our quarterly wine club tasting. The white wine options were either Chardonnay or Chenin Blanc, while the red wine options were Spainish Tempranillo or Cabernet Sauvignon.
