The Story

The Compañía Vinícola del Norte de España (CVNE), launched the Viña Real brand in the 1920s becoming one of the pioneering wineries in making crianza wines in oak barrels in this area. A careful balance between tradition and modernity has defined the form and content of Viña Real.

Written Notes

Und noch einmal kam „Drinking History“ ins Glas. 1954 Vina Real Reserva Especial von CVNE. 1954 war ein sehr schwieriges Weinjahr, aus dem es nicht viel Trinkbares gibt, mit Ausnahme Rioja. Gerade die Weine von CVNE aus der damaligen Zeit wiesen eine überragende Qualität und ein unglaubliches Standvermögen auf. So war es kein Wunder, dass am Tisch bei diesem kräftigen, altersfreien Wein mit seiner tiefdunklen Farbe alle meinten, wir seien jetzt wohl in den 80ern angekommen. Noch so lebhaft zeigte sich dieser Vina Real wunderbarer, dunkler Frucht, sehr kräftig mit fruchtiger Fülle und sehr guter Länge, aber auch mit viel Eleganz und Finesse. Das war einfach perfekt gereifter Rioja vom allerfeinsten. Für meine bisher beste Flasche dieses 54ers mit gutem Füllstand und Originalkork waren da locker WT96 fällig. Alte Weine von CVNE sind einfach eine Bank. Sie tauchen immer wieder auch auf Auktionen und im Internet auf. Trotzdem, oder auch gerade deshalb ist es wichtig, auf einwandfreie Herkunft und Lagerung zu achten. Eine Flasche, die etliche, heiße Sommer im Regal einer spanischen Bodega verbracht hat, macht einfach keinen Spaß mehr.
