LANZAGA LZ 2023 RIOJA

JEB DUNNUCK 94 POINTS - "From relatively young bush vines of Tempranillo, Graciano, and Garnacha, the little brother to the producer’s Lanzaga, the medium-bodied 2023 LZ exhibits a richness of brooding black fruit, nearly a dried fruit character to it. Floral in violet, it’s also savory and dark, with ample body weight and breadth across the palate, with no oak, aged only in concrete. It’s complex yet fresh and direct, ready to enjoy in its youth and over the next 15-20 years." - Virginia Boone
