C.V.N.E. (Compañía Vinícola del Norte de España)
Cune Gran Reserva Rioja Tempranillo Blend
La Rioja, Spain
This is a very tasty Spanish red from Rioja.
Full bodied and smooth with medium acidity.
Dry on the palate with nice complexity.
Showing blueberries, cherries, black plums, cooked cherries, oak, light vanilla, spices, tobacco leaf, dark coffee, chocolates and peppercorn.
Needs 3 hours to open up properly, so be patient. Will continue to age nicely in the next 5 years.
Wine Enthusiasts 95 points.
A good food wine that I paired with light appetizers.
100% Tempranillo grapes were aged in French and American oak barrels for 24 months.
13.5% alcohol by volume.
91 points.
$40.

Not bad but too tannic. Needs another five years!

Uit 2015. Soepel wijntje. Niet heel krachtig. Wij vonden hem tegenvallen. Zeker met kaas komt hij niet tot zijn recht

Medium deep ruby with notes of cherries, plum, spice, leather and some vanilla on the nose. Medium body, acid and tannins, nicely round in the mouth. Plums, raspberries, cherries and some earthy soil with some oak on the palate and some chocolate and a touch of vanilla on the medium finish.
