Founded in 1972, Bodegas LAN lies in the heart of Rioja Alta. The name LAN comes from the initials of the three provinces of the Rioja Designation of Origin: Logroño, Álava and Navarra. María Barua has been the head winemaker and technical director since 2002, and brings both scientific expertise (with an academic background in chemistry in addition to her oenology degree) and local knowledge (having been born and raised in Rioja). Together with her young and energetic team, María focuses on using the latest advances in winemaking to ‘express the virtues of the land’.

Vinous Media: 90 Points

"The 2020 Crianza is 94% Tempranillo and 6% Garnacha sourced from Rioja Alta and Alavesa. Aged for 13 months in French and American oak barrels, this garnet-colored wine features a black fruit nose with sour cherry and oaky notes. Dry and grippy, the palate lingers on the caramel-oak finish." Vinous Media, 90 Points

James Suckling: 90 Points

"Aromas of cherries, sweet spices, tobacco leaves and coffee. Medium-bodied with slightly rough tannins, but pleasingly chewy and spicy. Drink now or hold." James Suckling, 90 Points
