Vina Izadi Rioja CRIANZA Rioja Alavesa
Description: The Izadi Rioja Crianza is impressive – an intense, youthful purple in colour, with the vanilla oak perfumes well integrated with the juicy black fruit on the palate and fine, savoury tannins. The grapes for this wine come from vineyards situated at 600 metres above sea level so warm days give way to cool nights, encouraging the aromatic qualities in the grapes to develop. The grapes are destemmed and fermented in temperature controlled stainless steel tanks then the wine is aged in 225L barriques for 14 months. Izadi is based in Villabuena in the Rioja Alavesa, the highest part of Rioja. The hillside winery was founded in 1987 by Gonzalo Anton as a modern breakaway from the traditional style of wine produced by other members of his family. As son Lalo Anton says, ‘the whole concept of Izadi really started around wanting to produce wine to satisfy the needs of our friends over a meal’. The winemaking philosophy is beautifully simple, as Lalo explains; ‘Flexibility is the key – we follow a style but conditions change with each vintage. Order, flexibility and cleanliness are the keys for us to produce modern, international wines that are true to their roots and a natural expression of the area’. (12 x 75 cl) Price: £126.71
