Offre Wine in Black 'Rioja te quiero'

Wine in Black

Parmi les trois sous-régions de la Rioja, c’est la Rioja Alavesa qui propose les vins les plus prestigieux. La crème de la crème de la guilde des vignerons espagnols y est présente. Et au beau milieu de celle-ci : Prudencio Zuazo Gastón, lequel dirige la destinée de son domaine familial. Et il a un trésor très particulier à disposition. En effet, ses meilleurs vignobles prospèrent à 460 mètres d’altitude et profitent de sols argilo-calcaires, dans lesquels les ceps âgés de 45 ans s’enracinent profondément. Sur les huit hectares de la propriété, les trois cépages cultivés (tempranillo, graciano et viura) se présentent au meilleur de leur forme. Durant la journée, les vignes sont exposées au soleil brûlant et sont rafraîchies par de douces brises en provenance du littoral Atlantique. Pendant la nuit, les températures chutent énormément. Ce qui est fantastique. Cela permet aux raisins de conserver leur fraîcheur fruitée. Nous avons donc là les meilleurs ingrédients afin de produire un véritable vin de terroir. C’est exactement ce que fait le vigneron Prudencio Zuazo Gastón. Vous découvrirez avec la cuvée 'Finca Costanillas' la pureté authentique de la Rioja Alavesa. Ce petit chef-d’œuvre d’élégance sous le signe du terroir vous attend à un prix plus qu’abordable !

James Suckling

Black plums, some sour black cherries and grilled spices on the nose, following through to a full body with some crushed blueberries and a tight, tannic structure. The fruit is a little tart. Tempranillo, graciano and viura.

James Suckling

I like the smoked-meat, bark and berry aromas that follow through to a medium body with ultra-fine tannins and a long, creamy finish. Tangy and delicious. Hints of burnt orange at the end. Fresh meat, too. Tempranillo. Vegan.

The iconic red 2018 Cune Reserva, the first wine they ever produced, is a blend of Tempranillo with 15% Garnacha, Graciano and Mazuelo from Haro. 2018 was a classical cooler vintage like many years ago and delivered a wine with 14% alcohol and good freshness. It fermented in 20,000-liter stainless steel vats and matured in French and American oak barrels for 18 months (down from 24). It's a cool and nice vintage, with complexity and fruit and feels developed and taking in tertiary character with hints of forest floor and truffles. It's polished and sleek with fine-grained, chalky tannins. A classical Cvne Reserva from Rioja Alta that is ready now.

Vinous by Antonio Galloni

Deep, vivid ruby. Expressive aromas of spice-accented red and blue fruits, mocha and candied flowers, along with vanilla and pipe tobacco nuances. Juicy and appealingly sweet, offering fleshy black raspberry, cherry-vanilla and mocha flavors and a smoky flourish that emerges as the wine opens up. Finishes sappy and long, with smooth, slow-building tannins that fold into the wine's sweet fruit. All new French oak.

Guía Peñín

James Suckling

A fragrant nose of elderberries, plums, dried flowers, dill and spices. It’s medium-bodied with powdery tannins. Fruity and fresh with a textured, supple finish. Vegan.

A soft, fruity red with berry and cherry character. Full body, round tannins and a flavorful finish. 100% tempranillo. Drink now.

Robert Parker

The slightly more modern red 2018 Licenciado Reserva is dressed with a metal label and shows more smoky and toasty notes, hints of toasted sesame seeds and French oak rather than an American oak profile. They look for more ripeness, more concentration and more oak, but more is not necessarily better. For fans of more oaky Tempranillo. 36,000 bottles.

Decanter

Ripe damson aroma. The palate brings notes of red fruits, mint and chocolate. Texture is smooth and harmonious. Long, refreshing finish.

Wine Enthusiast

This dark-ruby-colored wine has a bouquet of blackberry, juniper and saddle leather. A pleasant leathery note continues in the mouth, accompanied by fruits of the wood, Valencia orange, milk chocolate and violet flavors. Bold acidity and velvety tannins carry into an enduring finish.
