2021 Bodegas Lan Rioja Crianza [JS90]

Producer: Bodegas Lan Region: Rioja, Spain Varietal: 96% Tempranillo, 4% Mazuelo Year: 2021  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."  Winemaker Notes:  "Bright cherry red with a garnet rim. A refined nose with predominant notes of red and stone fruits: strawberry, raspberry and peach. Patisserie and cream encased in elegant notes of vanilla, caramel and a subtle hint of cinnamon. It is flavorful and expressive on the palate. It is immediately inviting, enveloping the palate and leaving a long and pleasant aftertaste."  Alcohol: 13.5%  *Price and availability in store may vary.  Vintage date may differ from pictured.
