Elaboration and aging

Cune Imperial Reserva corresponds to a selection of the best grapes harvested manually in the vineyards of Rioja Alta. After fermentation, the wine is kept in the tank, where it macerates until it achieves the desired color and structure. Malolactic fermentation refines the wine, leaving it with the appropriate acidity.

The aging takes place in American and French oak barrels before being clarified with egg whites and bottled, finally aging in the bottle until it is released to the market.

Tasting notes of Cune Imperial Reserva

• Appearance: Cune Imperial Reserva has a garnet color with cherry undertones.

• Pallet: In the mouth, it presents a round and gentle tannin, resulting in a long aftertaste with fruity notes.
