LAN Xtrème Organic is the extreme manifestation of the LAN philosophy in terms of respect for the raw materials. A wine made with minimal intervention from the outset, the result of a selection of vines from the Ecological Mantible parcel, named as such due to its proximity to the Roman Mantible Bridge.

100% Tempranillo with organic certification.
VINEYARDS:
Mantible Ecológico, a 5-hectare parcel on the Viña Lanciano estate. 400 metres above sea level with terrain sloping down in a East-West direction. Sandy loam soils with an abundance of small and medium-sized pebbles.
WINEMAKING:
After alcoholic fermentation (AF) the wine was devatted and transferred to new French oak barrels where malolactic fermentation (FM) takes place spontaneously starting at the end of January and finishing on May the same year.

15 months in new French oak barrels, with the wine naturally cleaned through decantation. The barrels that are used for organic wine can only be new or used solely for organic wine during a year.
