Elaboration and aging

Cune Reserva is a blend of Tempranillo (85%) and Graciano, Garnacha, and Mazuelo (15% combined). Cune Reserva undergoes an alcoholic fermentation that lasts about ten days. After this process, malolactic fermentation takes place.

It is aged in French and American oak barrels for at least 24 months. After the barrel aging, it rests in the cellar for another year.
