A fun and fresh Tempranillo that lives up to the fantastic story behind the label. The Money munching pig is dedicated to all the bankers who denied the winery a loan because wine wasn't a good investment. Gonzalo is surely having the last laugh, as this is a highly popular and delicious red that brings a lot of joy to many Spanish wine fans.
Gran Cerdo 'Big Pig' is a nod to the big banks who denied Gonzalo loans when attempting to launch his wine business. Organic, biodynamic and minimal intervention wine from Rioja.
This bold, spicy, silky smooth Rioja comes from Bodega Lanzaga, a well known estate making wines from historical, old vine vineyards. Telmo Rodríguez has become a critically acclaimed winemaker, who has made wine in Burgundy and Bordeaux, before setting up Lanzaga in 1994.
