To give you a sneak preview of two wines from Bodegas Luis Cañas in advance of the upcoming Dinner Tasting at The Cherwell Boathouse on April 13, we have put together a small taster case of a classic white and red to showcase this producer’s modern, quality-driven style. All together there will be five wines on the night, one of which is included in this case.

The Luis Canas Rioja six-bottle case costs £76 and includes three bottles each of the following two wines.

Luis Cañas Barrel Fermented Rioja Blanco 2008: Deep, creamy, complex and fresh with delightful flavours of limes, greengage and vanilla. This wine is made from low yielding mature vines from Luis Cañas’ best vineyards.

Luis Cañas Selección de la Familia Rioja Reserva Tinto 2003: A modern style Rioja Reserva which has unusual depth of fruit, concentration and structure. Very different from the pale traditional style Riojas, this wine has good deep colour and is bursting with flavour. Decant and leave to stand for one hour before serving to enjoy this wine at its best.
