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 Rioja red 2018 Lanzaga comes from a very wet year with more than 600 liters of rain, but it had a dry October, which helped to fight mildew. They harvested between the 8th of October and 1st of November. It's a blend from their 15 to 20 hectares of organically farmed vines, all head-pruned on slopes rich in clay and limestone, mixing red and white soils, some places with more sandstone, others with more marl, looking for complexity. It fermented in 6,000-liter concrete vats with indigenous yeasts and matured in 1,500- and 2,500-liter oak foudres and 225-liter barrels for 14 months. It's floral and expressive, subtle and cold. This could very well be the best value in the portfolio. The wine has gobsmacking subtleness and elegance combined with power, definition and precision. Superb! 24,568 bottles produced. It was bottled in May/June 2020.
