Vinous Media 92
The 2022 A Mano blends 84% Tempranillo, 14% Graciano and 2% Mazuelo from Rioja Alta. Aged for ten months in new French oak, then four months in Caucasian oak, it opens with camphor, aromatic herbs and rosemary, followed by violet and faint liqueur-like notes. The oak and fruit tannins are well-integrated despite the moderate alcohol (13.5%) before the finish of ripe black fruit.

Wine Spectator 93
Fresh and focused, with a core of ripe red and black cherry and currant fruit flavors meshed with dense, fine-grained tannins. Enticing details of violet, wild thyme, rosemary, vanilla and anise accent the fruit profile and linger on the finish. Tempranillo, Graciano, Garnacha and Mazuelo.

Technical Details
Background
It's a story, it's commitment, it's unique craftsmanship, it's heart. It's LAN.
There is always something special about things that are made by hand. The difficult
thing is to create a wine that is a true reflection of style, character and identity,
the easy thing is to surrender to its charm from the first moment.
Food pairing
At special moments with meat carpaccios and roasted or barbecued
red meats... moments of celebrating the extraordinary.
Tasting notes
A deep, almost opaque garnet colour, with dark highlights
that speak of time and dedication. Black fruit (blackberry,
blueberry and ripe plum) with spicy notes (clove and cinnamon)
and hints of roasted coffee encircling the fruit and the minerality,
creating a unique sensory universe. Powerful, broad and well-structured,
with attractive tannins that meld into fruity aromas, leaving an
attractive finish, as long-lasting as your memories of the finest moments in life.
Vinification
The difficult thing is to ferment in in small truncated-cone tanks, carry
out malolactic in new French oak barrels and stir the lees every week.
The easy thing is to let yourself be carried away by those 10 months in
French oak barrels from the Troncais and Jupille forests, followed by
four months in Caucasian oak
