CVNE Crianza Rioja DOCa

Name: CVNE Crianza Rioja DOCa - Vinumlector
SKU: SP0105

In 1879, the Real de Asúa brothers arrived in Haro to embark on what would become one of the longest-standing histories in the wine world. A trip initially taken for health reasons led to the creation of Compañía Vinícola del Norte de España (C.V.N.E.) in the iconic Barrio de la Estación railway station. The first wine produced by CVNE was named after its initials. A simple orthographic mistake where the V was written as U resulted in the creation of the Cune brand.

Cune Crianza has been produced every year since the company was founded.

The vineyards for Cune Crianza are located in Rioja Alta, near the CVNE winery, which means that the grapes arrive intact at the winery to be processed in optimal conditions. Approximately half of the grapes are from the vineyards in Haro and nearby towns, while the rest are bought from grape growers in the area.
