La Rioja, Spain
Easy drinking, chuggable red. Far more fruity than your typical Rioja - especially as it sees little to no oak. Solid dinner party option, and I love the winemakers story and low intervention practices.
It takes several hours to open up, so I recommend opening at breakfast if you’re drinking it for dinner.
“The wines come from their own vineyards, as Luis is lucky enough to be a fifth-generation winegrower. His grandfather and father both planted vineyards from the 1960s onwards, originally with the aim of selling grapes to other local wineries. When Arnedo took over the family business, he decided to bottle the wines under his own label, which is how Bodega Lacus was born in 2007. He has continued to plant some new vineyards himself since then, which now translates to some 15 hectares of his own, verdant with the typical varieties Tempranillo, Garnacha, and Graciano, and also some white grapes.” Jenny & Francois Selections
