Bodegas CVNE

Bodegas CVNE
The company was founded in 1879. Compañía Vinícola del Norte de España by the two brothers Eusebio and Raimundo Real de Asua. They gave birth to a family winery that would expand over the next twenty years. 5 generations.

The CVNE group, emblematic of Spain's prestigious wines, today boasts 7 vineyards in Spain's finest wine-growing regions, including Rioja Alta and Rioja Alavesa. With 140 years of experience, CVNE is constantly evolving, blending tradition and innovation to produce wines of excellence.

With its 1994 vintage, the Real de Asual wine makes its appearance, each year paying homage to the passion and work of the founding brothers. The grapes come from the CVNE "Carromaza" vineyard, located in the Rioja Alta region in the Spanish municipality of Villalba. Representing 2.37 hectares, the 100% Tempranillo vines are grown at an altitude of 600 meters. Sheltered from the cold and wind by the mountain slopes of the Sierra de Cantabria, the grapes benefit from a unique climate conducive to their development.

The grapes are harvested entirely by hand in the vineyard, with the berries sorted twice before vatting. Real de Asua is aged for 12 months in 100% new French oak barrels.

"Very impressive!"

"The wine is very impressive, clean and harmonious, with no perceptible oak, juicy, young, fresh and elegant. It has concentration, power and finesse. It unveils a new label, a new bottle and a much more modern image, but with the essence of the past. The wine is much improved, with grip and very fine tannins. Very impressive. It has the essence of Rioja without the layers and layers of oak, now from a single vineyard where you want freshness and a lush, yet floral and delicate profile that you have to drink effortlessly. Superb." (Wine Advocate 2022) - Wooden case delivery available for orders of 6 bottles of this wine (depending on country and shipping method selected).
