"Very classic character to this with toasted oak, hints of consomme, meat and dried lemon. Medium body with crisp, firm tannins. Drink or hold."

 

91+ Points, Luis Gutiérrez, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: "The 2017 Cune Gran Reserva comes from a very challenging year marked by frost and a dry and warm end of the season, but it shows very good freshness and youth, transcending the adverse conditions of the year. It's a blend of 85% Tempranillo, 10% Graciano and 5% Mazuelo with good ripeness and 14% alcohol; it's approachable and affordable with a mix of developed and fruit-driven characteristics. It matured in oak barrels for 24 months, and the oak is neatly folded into the wine. Great effort for the vintage. 175,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in September 2020." 07/22.

Cune Gran Reserva is a red wine produced by CVNE in the DOCa. and made with Tempranillo, Graciano and Mazuelo varieties. The origins of the Compañía Vinícola del Norte de España date back to 1879, when two brothers founded CVNE, a winery located in the Haro station (La Rioja). 140 years later, although the winery has become a whole group, it is still in the hands of the same family. Cune Gran Reserva is made from grapes selected from the vineyards planted in Rioja Alta. It is characterised by its clay-calcareous soils and a continental climate with Mediterranean influences. The harvest is carried out manually. In the winery the Cune Gran Reserva grape is destemmed and pressed. It is macerated cold and alcoholic fermentation is carried out at a controlled temperature. The ageing takes place over 24 months in American and French oak barrels. It is then refined in the bottle for 36 months. The oldest wine from the winery, Cune Gran Reserva is a good representative of Rioja's fine wines. #NEW
