The digital edition of Food&Wine brings together a selection of Gran Reservas from D.O.Ca. Rioja to look out for; all priced under 30 dollars. The article highlights the excellent value-for-money that these wines represent, favourably comparing them with the long ageing periods required for the fine wines of Bordeaux or Barolo, which often need decades of rest before they are ready to enjoy.
The publication recommends five wines, which include the 2011 vintage of LAN Gran Reserva, in which the writer highlights the balance between ripe fruit and oak.
