Weekly Wine Show

This week we are talking about Rioja and Bodegas LAN. We talked about Rioja way back in episode 26 of the podcast. We were recently sent some wine from LAN and Thursday, November 8, 2018 just happens to be International Tempranillo Day so we thought it was a great time to revisit Rioja and learn more about Bodegas LAN and talk about their wines.   Wine Recommendations -  These were sent to us by the good people at Bodegas LAN LAN Crianza 2014 - priced around $14.  Nose: red cherries, raspberries, spice and dust Dry with medium acidity and tannins with flavors similar to aromas with a hint of cedar on the finish We thought this wine was a great balance of tannins and acid. The Fruit and acid makes this wine very lively  but has other complex aromas and flavors going on like the cedar and spice. Very tasty, approachable wine, this is solid traditional Crianza You can purchase this wine here    LAN Viña Lanciano Reserva 2011 - priced around $30.  Nose: black cherries, blueberries, vanilla and baking spice
