On the palate
Familia Larchago Crianza 2020 — a classic Rioja Alavesa Crianza in the traditional style, Tempranillo-based with the trademark balance of red fruit, soft tannin and gentle wood spice.
Made by Familia Larchago, a small Rioja Alavesa producer based in the higher, cooler northern half of the region; the estate works chalky-clay vineyards across the Alavesa with a focus on traditional Rioja expression. Tempranillo-led Crianza aged the required minimum 12 months in oak with further bottle ageing before release.
Intense cherry-red with medium-high depth and a purple rim | Complex aromas of ripe red and dark berry, plum and blackcurrant with cocoa, cinnamon and gingerbread spice from oak | Well-balanced, fruity and tasty, with toasted notes on the close
Grilled lamb, roast pork, paella, hard manchego and tapas; a versatile cellar-list Crianza for the next 4–6 years.
