Founded in 1973 by the venerable CVNE, Viñedos Contino has been an important producer in the Rioja wine revolution and has energetically championed the ‘château’ concept in the region whereby wines are made from a single estate.

Viña del Olivo is their flagship wine and is a superb example of modern Rioja that combines lush fruit, abundant freshness, delightful purity and seamlessly integrated oak. The 2016 is a seriously impressive release that displays just a little more power and therefore gives it excellent ageing potential.

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.
