Description
Cune Club Reserva 2022 is produced in Rioja Alta from a careful selection of the best bunches from CVNE.
Tasting notes
View
Beautiful deep cherry red hue, ripe with a garnet intense edge, lively and bright.
Nose
On the aromatic front, it presents as complex and highly fragrant, with pronounced notes of spices (vanilla and cinnamon) and toasted coffee, hints of fine woods (cedar) and baked goods, finishing with pleasant fruity notes blending black berries from the forest and touches of blackcurrant.
Mouth
On the palate, it is tasty, well-balanced and well-structured, with excellent quality tannins that are fleshy, luscious and very fruity. It integrates perfectly, offering expression and breadth on the palate, with a focus on ripe fruit that was announced on the nose. At the end of the tasting, it stands out for its long persistence with notes of roasting and spicy nuances (vanilla).
The winery
The Compañía Vinícola del Norte de España is one of the great symbols of the Estación de Haro neighborhood, the great capital of Rioja wine. Founded in 1879 by the brothers Raimundo and Eusebio Real de Asúa, CVNE (as it is known worldwide) can proudly claim to have remained at the top throughout its history. Ten years after its creation, the winery inaugurated an impressive barrel hall designed by the studio of Alexandre Gustave Eiffel. By 1900, it was already producing nearly 80,000 bottles, an unthinkable feat for the time. The 20th century established CVNE as an institution of Spanish wine.
Over 140 years, it has successfully combined tradition and innovation to create wines that today are the standard-bearers of Rioja reds and have garnered international critical acclaim. Its Imperial Gran Reserva 2004 made history when it was chosen as Wine of the Year 2013 by the prestigious American magazine Wine Spectator, marking the first time a Spanish wine received this recognition.
Since its foundation, CVNE has expanded its heritage and grown with avant-garde projects at different times in its history, such as the creation of Viñedos del Contino or Viña Real.
