Description

CVNE, also known as Compañía Vinícola del Norte de España, is a renowned wine producer located in the Rioja region of Spain. With a rich history dating back to its establishment in 1879, CVNE has become synonymous with quality and tradition in the world of winemaking.

The Rioja region, where CVNE is situated, is one of the most prestigious wine regions in Spain. It is known for its exceptional red wines, which are made primarily from the Tempranillo grape variety. The region's unique climate and soil conditions contribute to the production of wines with great character and complexity.

CVNE follows a traditional style of production, which emphasizes the use of oak barrels for aging. This technique imparts distinct flavors and aromas to the wines, adding layers of complexity and depth. The winery boasts an impressive collection of oak barrels, some of which are over 100 years old, showcasing their commitment to tradition and craftsmanship.

CVNE produces a wide range of wines, each with its own unique characteristics and style. Their flagship wine, the CVNE Rioja Crianza, is a true representation of the region's winemaking heritage. Made from a blend of Tempranillo, Garnacha, and Mazuelo grapes, this wine undergoes a minimum of one year of aging in oak barrels, followed by further maturation in the bottle. The result is a wine that is elegant, balanced, and full of flavor.

The CVNE Rioja Crianza exhibits a beautiful ruby red color, with aromas of ripe red fruits, vanilla, and spices. On the palate, it is smooth and velvety, with well-integrated tannins and a long, lingering finish. This wine pairs perfectly with a variety of dishes, including roasted meats, game, and aged cheeses.

In addition to their Rioja Crianza, CVNE also produces other notable wines, such as their Reserva and Gran Reserva. These wines undergo longer aging periods, resulting in even more complex and refined flavors. The Reserva is aged for a minimum of two years, while the Gran Reserva is aged for at least five years, with two of those years spent in oak barrels.

CVNE's commitment to quality and tradition has earned them numerous accolades and recognition in the wine industry. Their wines consistently receive high

Tasting notes

90 Points - The wine Advocate

The juicy and primary red 2019 Cune Crianza shows ripeness, at only 13.5% alcohol (they aim for 13%), but also has freshness. The oak is very subtle and integrated into the fruit that is at the front of the nose and palate. It has a touch of rusticity, an earthy touch on the palate. It's a blend of Tempranillo with 15% Garnacha and Mazuelo from Rioja Alta that fermented in 20,000-liter stainless steel vats and matured in used (mostly) American oak barrels for one year. They produce three million bottles of this and bottle it throughout the year. This is the wine that sets the bar in the red portfolio. Very good.
