The Luis Canas Crianza is a very pleasant wine, starting with a beautiful ruby red color and a beautiful intense nose of wild berries, spicy notes and has a touch of fine wood. The taste shows sweet tannins and a good balance, intense and fresh and gives a velvety feeling in the mouth. The Luis Canas Crianza has a more than excellent price/quality ratio and gives a lot of wine for the money.

The winery is owned and run by Juan Luis Cañasen. Juan Luis Cañasen is dynamic, tireless perfectionist and passionate about the vineyard and winery. In 1994 came a completely rebuilt new modern winery that was better equipped and had better processing. Since then, Juan Luis Cañasen decided to make even more effort to constantly upgrade and expand his wines. This has led to an improvement in the quality of his wines, but also to being able to produce a constant quality every year without peaks and troughs. The good work, care and attention in the winery has led to multiple awards around the world. Luis Cañas is located in the heart of the Rioja region, which is undoubtedly one of the best wine regions in the world. The vines are usually small in size and of great age.

Vineyard for 2017 Luis Canas Crianza

Making wine is in the Cañas family's blood. The winery was founded in 1928 by Luis Cañas, but the history of the company goes back further. The family has been active in grape growing and wine production for over 2 centuries. The vast vineyards of the Cañas family are located in La Rioja, an autonomous province in the north of Spain. Luis Cañas works with the philosophy that good wines can only be produced with the best grapes. The harvested grapes are carefully placed in small crates and then transported to the winery. There they are again extensively checked. The grapes that are in perfect condition continue in the wine process.
