					<description><![CDATA[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.
<p class="p1">The grapes for CUNE Roble are harvested from vineyards situated 800 m above sea level on clayey and calcareous soils in the town of Villalba de Duero, Burgos. The climate is continental, with severe winters and warm summers with cold nights.</p>
<p class="p1">A cherry red wine with intense red fruit aromas and a good balance, with the spicy nuances brought by its ageing in the barrel.</p>

					<description><![CDATA[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.

<p class="p1">Cune Crianza has been produced every year since the company was founded.</p>
<p class="p1">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.</p>

					<description><![CDATA[Finca La Emperatriz is a winery with an extensive vineyard estate in Rioja Alta.
Viñedos Hermanos Hernáiz is the new project of brothers Eduardo and Víctor, who in 1996 acquired Bodega La Emperatriz, named as such because the first owner of these plots was Eugenia de Montijo, wife of Napoleon III and Empress of France. With this new emphasis and with new projects at hand, the winery changed its name but its high-end wines retain the Finca La Emperatriz signature, the name of the ‘viñedo singular’ they come from, which is given to small, old plots with limited but high quality production and which, in summary, must comply with a series of strict standards to prove their quality. The grapes used to make El Jardín de la Emperatriz Tinto come from plots where the soils are mostly composed of white boulders over a sandy-loam structure and where the vines have an average age of 25 years old.

Las Cenizas is the winery’s village wine that takes its name from one of the most important towns in the Rioja DOCa: Cenicero, in the heart of Rioja Alta, - where the <span dir="auto">Hernáiz brothers - and whose name is believed to be due to the bonfires that the primitive </span><span dir="auto">shepherds left as they passed through the area. </span>A historic town known for its vineyards and the quality of its wines.

					<description><![CDATA[<span dir="auto">For several generations, the García family has been fully dedicated to viticulture. In 2000, leveraging decades of experience and winemaking know-how, they founded Bodegas Monteabellón, a family winery located in the small town of Nava de Roa. </span><span dir="auto">Nava de Roa</span><span dir="auto"> still preserves a multitude of wine presses and wineries where its people once produced and stored wine. As in the rest of the  </span><span dir="auto">Ribera del Duero region</span><span dir="auto">, its history and traditions are closely linked to wine.</span>

A dry, cold winter and a dry, dry spring with a water deficit were followed by a very dry, hot summer with temperatures exceeding 42°C for more than 10 consecutive days. All of this has resulted in a high alcohol content and high tannin concentration for the vintage 2022. The result is a characteristically rich layer of color in the wines, with fewer fresh fruit notes than in previous vintages, but more ripe fruit notes this time. These characteristics are appreciated both on the palate and nose. A very good harvest is expected given the high concentration of the wines. This also includes an excellent skin-to-pulp ratio that is more balanced than in previous years.

					<description><![CDATA[Muriel Wines was created as a family business with strong links to its place of origin. Today, it has become a large global company with an important part of its business dedicated to exports. But it remains very connected to its roots: one foot in the vineyard and the other in the rest of the world.

Made from vineyards in the heart of Rioja Alavesa and select areas of Rioja Alta, these old vines are cultivated using the traditional goblet-training system. Giving the greatest prominence to the DOCa Rioja’s star variety and following the traditional guidelines that have made it so well known, Muriel Gran Reserva Viña Viejas is a classic to enjoy the expertise of this community that is so attached to their land.

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>TECHNICAL DATA</strong><br />
Alcohol 14%</p>
<p><strong>APPEARANCE</strong><br />
A beautiful mid-coat ruby tile color.</p>
<p><strong>NOSE</strong><br />
An aromatic explosion of aging notes (such as vanilla, roasted coffee, spices, etc.), very ripe fruit (raisins, caramel), and very subtle notes of bottle aging (leather, tobacco, etc.).</p>
<p><strong>PALATE</strong><br />
Its perfectly blended, smooth, and silky flavor stands out. Very long, with a velvety sensation and a very pleasant aftertaste.</p>
<p><strong>AGEING</strong><br />
It takes place over a period of 24 months in 225-liter American and French oak barrels. Once the aging process is complete, the wine is bottled and matures for three years before being released.</p>
