Product Description
Details

The red wine Luis Cañas Crianza is crafted almost entirely from Tempranillo, with just a droplet of Grenache, Graciano, Mazuela and Viura. The grapes come from 30-year-old vineyards.

After a meticulous harvest, the vinification process of this Spanish red wine was carried out in a traditional manner.

First, the grapes were destemmed, crushed and cold-macerated for about 3 weeks. Once alcoholic fermentation was completed, this Crianza red wine from Bodega Luis Cañas was aged for 12 months in French (60%) and American (40%) oak barrels.

Finally, the wine Luis Cañas Crianza 2021 from La Rioja was aged for an additional 12 months in the bottle to round its texture.

This red wine from La Rioja is an amazing value.

Nose

This blend of Tempranillo, Grenache, Graciano, Mazuela and Viura suggests some clean aromas of mulberries and sour cherries, accompanied by a background of balsamic, spicy and smoked remembrances.

Palate

This red wine from the Luis Cañas winery has a velvety texture and smooth, well-integrated tannins. Flavours of wild berries, with notes of clove, cinnamon and underbrush. Medium finish with a smokey and toasted aftertaste.

A very fine wine from a very fine producer. Classic Rioja with a lively, gently modern touch.
