Description

Mariano J. Lacort - Crianza Rioja is a classic expression of the Rioja region's winemaking tradition. This red wine is made primarily from Tempranillo, the signature grape of Rioja, and is aged for a minimum of 12 months in oak barrels, followed by additional aging in the bottle. The aging process imparts a balance of rich fruit flavors and subtle oak influences, resulting in a wine that is both complex and approachable. Mariano J. Lacort's Crianza captures the essence of the Rioja terroir, offering a harmonious blend of tradition and modern winemaking.

On the palate, Mariano J. Lacort Crianza Rioja is medium-bodied with a smooth and velvety texture. Flavors of juicy red fruits are interwoven with hints of cedar, tobacco, and sweet spices like cinnamon and clove. The tannins are soft and well-integrated, providing structure without overpowering the fruit.

FINISH:
The balanced acidity adds freshness, leading to a long and elegant finish with lingering notes of red fruit and a subtle touch of oak.
