Cune Vina Real Reserva 2018

Luis Gutièrrez of Robert Parker's The Wine Advocate rated this wine 92 points.  “The 2018 Cune Gran Reserva was produced with grapes picked quite late into the season, reflecting a cooler year with frost and snow and a mild summer.  The final blend was 85% Tempranillo, 10% Graciano and 5% Mazuelo or Cariñena, mostly from their 70 hectares in Torremontalbo. The grapes fermented with indigenous yeasts in stainless steel and concrete after a 24-hour cold soak, and the wine matured in French and American oak barrels for 24 months.  It has spicy notes from the oak, vanilla and coconut, and is aromatic and expressive, clean, with a classic Gran Reserve profile. t was bottled in June 2021, and the bottles are kept for at least three years before they are released.”  (July 14, 2022).
