BODEGA LANZAGA
蘭沙加酒莊
蘭沙加酒莊創建時的夢想，便是釀造出 18 世紀最好的Rioja 葡萄酒，當時西班牙的葡萄酒產區尚在流行名氣大且好賣的國際葡萄品種，但Telmo Rodríguez 明白，復興西班牙傳統葡萄品種是他的使命。憑著購買葡萄園時對風土的講究、少量的生產、精耕細作，甚至不惜工本採用生物動力法，加以歷年來各界酒評家的高分肯定，一步步奠定了西班牙民間口耳相傳的西班牙版的Romanée-Conti地 位。
2015 年，葡萄酒大師、國際權威酒評家 Tim Atkin效仿 Bordeaux 1855 年的分級制度，發表了一份Classification of Rioja，將 Rioja 主要酒莊分為5個等級，評選出最頂級的 61 個酒莊，而蘭沙加酒莊入選為最高等級的一級莊，實力更加得以見證。

The 2018 El Velado comes from a southeast-facing vineyard in the village of Lanciego that has a high proportion of Garnacho from Viñaspre as well as other varieties in a field blend where Tempranillo dominates. 2018 was a wet year that produced mildew in the vineyards and resulted in a late harvest (October 8th to November 1st). It fermented in an open-top 3,000-kilo oak vat with indigenous yeasts and matured in barriques and foudres for 14 to 16 months. This feels more balanced and fresher than other vintages, and the wine is quite fluid, a year of good yields and fine tannins. The grapes developed fully, as the cycle was long and the ripeness very good. 1,531 bottles were filled in May 2020.
