Alcohol: 13,9%
Grape(s): Tempranillo
Localization: Rioja, Spain
Tasting Notes: This wine exhibits a medium to deep, shiny cherry color with shades of purple on a background. To the nose, intense aromas of ripe fruits (blackberries, blackcurrants) stand out, complemented by subtle hints of oak. To the palate, it presents as structured and round, with good integration of fruitiness and oakiness. The aftertaste is marked by very well-balanced tannins as well as by persistent spicy, toasty, and balsamic aromas. A long stay in the bottle is the finishing touch to this Rioja Alavesa wine's character.
The Domain: CVNE is situated in Rioja, in the traditional neighborhood of the station, where the oldest wineries of Rioja Alta established themselves, mainly for the purpose of transporting their goods to the port of Bilbao.
In 1879, two brothers decided to establish a business in the rapidly growing wine trade. C.V.N.E., Compañía Vinicola del Norte de España (The Northern Spanish Wine Company) or la Cuné, as it is commonly known in Haro, was created. This cellar still reflects the company's origins and is located in the traditional neighborhood near the Haro station.
The Cune winery in Haro comprises a group of buildings, mostly from the 19th century, arranged around a courtyard surrounded by pavilions for wine production, aging, and bottling.
