Cune, Rioja Reserva Red

The first wine produced by CVNE was named after its initials. A simple orthographic mistake where the V was written as U resulted in the creation of the Cune brand. Historically, Cune Reserva was known as “cuarto año” or “quinto año”. Following the wine law of 1970, it became known as reserva.

Bright ruby-red. Intense-floral-accented aromas and flavors of candied red fruit, with smoke and mocha nuances gaining strength with air. Sappy, penetrating and supple in texture, with very good finishing clarity and fruity, oak-spiced persistence. This is drinking very well right now.
