1998 C.V.N.E. Viña Real - Rioja Gran Reserva - 1 Double Magnum/Jeroboam (3.0L)

Viña Real ORO Gran Reserva 1998 (1 Doble Magnum 3L) C.V.N.E. Compañia Vinicola Del Norte De España - (Haro, La Rioja) DO.: RIOJA Rioja Vintage Rating 1998: VERY GOOD "Forged in the 1920s, Viña Real is a legendary brand and one of the oldest in Spain. Behind it is CVNE, but it is made in an independent winery located in Rioja Alavesa: architecturally and technologically, one of the most outstanding wineries on the Spanish and European wine scene. It is made from a selection of its own vineyards located in different areas of Rioja Alavesa: Laguardia, Elciego and Labastida. Small plots over 35 years old at an altitude of between 500 and 650 m, where glass vines grow on slopes facing south. In its composition, Tempranillo is complemented by a touch (5%) of Graciano that provides liveliness and freshness to the whole. It is aged for 24 months in new and single-use French and American oak barrels, followed by a minimum of three years in the bottle. Viña Real belongs to the CVNE group, and since 2004 it has had its own winery dedicated to this range in Laguardia (Rioja Alavesa). But the history of Viña Real is much more extensive. CVNE has marketed the Viña Real brand since 1920. We are therefore facing one of the pioneering and most emblematic brands of Spanish wine, which, since its origins, has been aged in oak as a hallmark. Viña Real embodied - and embodies - the tradition of Rioja Alavesa, united with the most rabid modernity in production and viticulture, with a meatier, rounder and more powerful wine profile."
