Interesting facts
The open, complex white wine "Vina Real" Blanco Fermentado en Barrica is made from Viura grapes grown in limestone-clay soils in the Rioja Alavesa subregion. The harvest is hand-picked when the grapes reach optimal ripeness. At the winery, the grapes undergo careful sorting and maceration on the skins at 10 ºC for 12 hours for better aroma extraction. This is followed by gentle pressing in a small pneumatic press and fermentation in Hungarian oak barrels of varying sizes. The wine is then aged on fine lees with regular bâtonnage for 5 months. The bottling of the 2020 vintage took place in April 2022 after filtration and clarification. The "Vina Real" estate is one of the pillars of the CVNE company, an innovative winery striving for innovation and experimentation. The winery building is an architectural masterpiece by Bordeaux architect Philippe Mazieres, created on a hill in the form of a huge bathtub made of concrete, wood, and stainless steel, combining modernity and nobility. Two tunnels have been drilled from the winery into the mountains, where the estate's wines are aged under special conditions.
About the Manufacturer
The wine company of Northern Spain (CVNE), founded in 1879 by brothers Raimundo and Eusebio Real de Asua, is considered the oldest winery in Spain. Eusebio's poor health, for which the doctor recommended a dry climate, was the reason the brothers decided to settle in the province. Choosing the town of Haro in Rioja Alta for residence, they quickly appreciated the region's high potential for winemaking and decided to engage in this business. The first wine "Cune", presented by CVNE, bore the name of the winery. It appeared at a time when French vineyards were recovering from the phylloxera epidemic, and the shortage of famous French wines in the market was compensated by Spanish winemakers. The second iconic wine for the company was "Monopole", offered to consumers in 1915. This wine, which immediately became a white classic of Rioja, is today the oldest brand of Spanish white wine. The wine "Imperial" also received significant recognition. Introduced in 1920, it was made from indigenous Spanish grape varieties grown in the estate's own vineyards and also became a classic of Rioja. Today, CVNE is a family company managed by representatives of the fifth generation of the dynasty. It is among the top five best wineries in Rioja, owning up to 600 hectares of vineyards and purchasing about 50% of the grapes from other estates. Remaining true to traditions, CVNE's leaders have always welcomed an innovative approach in vineyard and winery operations, while placing special emphasis on product quality. For Spaniards, CVNE is one of the most recognized brands of Rioja, associated with premium quality wines.
