Contino Reserva 2018

HED23980 75cl 14%
Contino is a well-regarded winery located in Rioja Alavesa. Established in 1973, Contino was one of the pioneers of the single estate concept in Rioja, meaning that the wines are made exclusively from grapes grown on the estate`s vineyards. This approach allows for better control over the quality and style of the wines produced. The 2018 vintage displays a deep ruby colour and offers a complex bouquet of red and black fruits, such as cherries, blackberries, and plums, along with hints of spices, tobacco, and vanilla from the oak aging. On the palate, this medium to full-bodied wine exhibits a velvety texture with well-integrated tannins and a balanced acidity. The flavours mirror the nose, showcasing ripe fruit notes, as well as some earthy and balsamic nuances.

CVNE

CVNE

CVNE is a family-run company, founded in March 1879 in Haro, Rioja by Eusebio and Raimundo Real de Asúa. The Real de Asúa brothers’ aim was to capitalise on the flourishing new trade in wine and over 140 years later CVNE is still under the stewardship of the direct descendants of the founding family, now in its fifth generation.

Wines produced under the CVNE label include "Cune" a label inspired by an early mis-spelling of the CVNE name; "Monopole", a superb white Rioja; "Corona", a rare sweet white produced using grapes affected by noble rot; "Real de Asúa", a sister wine to the famous Imperial range; "Vina Real", premium red and white Rioja produced from grapes sourced in the Alavesa sub-region; "Pagos de Viña Real", CVNE's top tier Rioja first released in 2001; and "Contino", a Rioja produced using grapes sourced exclusively from a 62 hectare estate near Laserna.
