Real de Asua Red wine

Discover the exceptional Real de Asua Reserva red wine from the renowned C.V.N.E. winery, crafted from the finest Tempranillo grapes sourced from the prestigious Carromaza vineyard located in the heart of Rioja Alta. This 2017 vintage, presented in a 0.75-liter bottle, showcases the distinctive character of its terroir, enriched by the Atlantic climate at 600 meters above sea level and the protective embrace of the Sierra de Cantabria.

The meticulous winemaking process begins with the careful selection of grapes during the harvest, which takes place in mid-October, followed by subsequent sorting at the winery. The fermentation process takes place in new French oak barrels, ensuring optimal extraction of flavors while maintaining the integrity of the fruit. During the 18-month aging period, the wine experiences malolactic fermentation, enhancing its complexity and depth.

Visually, this wine captivates with its vibrant cherry-red color, accented by bluish hues. On the nose, it reveals an aromatic intensity boasting a medley of forest fruits such as blueberries and currants, blended with enticing notes of clove, smoke, and roasted nuances from its time spent in oak. The palate offers a silky entrance with balanced tannins, finishing with a delightful acidity that imparts freshness alongside fruity flavors and hints of sweet spices.

Real de Asua Reserva is the perfect companion for robust meats and select desserts, adding an elegant touch to your dining experience. With an alcohol content of 14%, this wine promises to delight the senses and enhance every occasion. Indulge in a bottle of this excellent Rioja and savor a true expression of Spanish viticulture.
