About the Producer

Viña Lanciano is the name of this spectacular setting, 72 hectares embraced by a curve of the River Ebro, on the natural border between the Rioja Alta and the Rioja Alavesa. A privileged location, sheltered by the Cantabria Mountains, which creates a different microclimate in each of its 22 parcels, where we respect the logical balance of nature to the maximum through sustainable vine growing.

Time, the legacy of nature and the increases and decreases in the level of the river throughout the years, mean that Viña Lanciano enjoys conditions that confer a character all of their own. The Tempranillo, Mazuelo, Graciano and Garnacha vines - as old as sixty years of age - have to dig their roots deep into the soil to find nutrients to survive on this pebble-strewn former riverbed. An almost legendary effort by nature, which is transmitted to the grapes and reflected in the wines’ mineral profile.

Our wines are a faithful reflection of the vineyard, the parcels and the grape varieties that they come from. In the barrel ageing we aim to respect the grape variety and terroir, allowing them to express themselves fully. Care for the raw material remains our key maxim, down to each and every detail.

Fitted with an automatic stacking and racking system that is unique in the world, we are able to work with a wide range of different types of oak in our barrel room. French, American, Russian, Hungarian, Pyrenean oak and hybrid barrels (American oak staves and French oak bottoms), with different types of toast, selected and renewed periodically. We tailor the ageing to each variety on a separate basis, arranging pyramids of barrels by parcel, in order to extract their maximum potential.
