CVNE, Cune Gran Reserva, Rioja, Northern Spain 2015

From 45-year-old bush vines, an enticing nose of sweet cedary oak and ripe, spicy black fruit, hints of blueberry and black cherry. Rich black fruit melds with brighter plums, herb and spice notes weaving through. Good depth of fruit, integrated tannins and a long finish. Still lively – and will continue to evolve in bottle. Vegan.
