The beauty of the fruit in this wine shows such balance and reserve. Yet it is so fine. Black cherry and fine tannins. Very polished.

The 2012 Lanzaga shows the character of the year, but comes through as fresher and better balanced than the already impressive 2011. This blend of Tempranillo, Garnacha and Graciano is sourced from their 14 hectares of organically farmed, head-pruned vineyards in the village of Lanciego. It fermented in 6,000-kilo cement vats with indigenous yeasts, and matured in a combination of 1,500- and 2,500-liter foudres and 225-liter barriques for some 14 months. The nose is elegant, subtle and balanced, with ripe fruit without excess and nicely integrated oak. The palate shows nice concentration and power keeping the poise and elegance, with good balance, fine tannins and moderate acidity. Nice combination of elegance and power. 31,390 bottles produced.

Sødmefuld vaniljenæse. Lidt tam i smagen med let frugtige noter og toast. Kort afslutning. Drik 2020-2025. Alk.: 14%
