Taste
On the palate, CVNE Viña Real La Virgen 2020 offers a smooth yet robust expression defined by dark plum, blackcurrant, and beautifully structured tannins. Subtle notes of black cherry, spice, and a touch of cedar unfold alongside undertones of white pepper and fresh olives, all culminating in a long, persistent finish. The balance between tannin and acidity gives this wine notable length and elegance. The bouquet bursts with intense aromas of fresh red and black fruits: think berries like blueberries, raspberries, blackberries - complemented by a typical Tempranillo hint of liquorice. Delicately integrated oak from its 12 months in French barrels brings subtle spice, smokiness, roasted tones, and balsamic lift for complexity.
Producer
CVNE (Compañía Vinícola del Norte de España) stands out as one of Rioja’s most innovative and celebrated producers, with Viña Real established in the 1920s as a pioneer of modern Rioja Alavesa wines. Employing a blend of tradition and cutting-edge technique, Viña Real sources grapes exclusively from their own 40-year-old single vineyard plot known as La Virgen. The site benefits from south-facing slopes at the foot of Mount Toloño, offering clay soils with pebbly surfaces that ensure slow ripening and preserved acidity. CVNE’s rigorous grape selection and the use of indigenous yeasts add layers of complexity, while a commitment to sustainable practices and minimal intervention further distinguishes the estate.
