Product Notes

C.V.N.E Contino Graciano wine is a vibrant and complex red from Rioja, Spain. Only Graciano grapes are used to produce this sophisticated libation, elevating it to an exquisite experience for any wine enthusiast. The wine's rich hues of ruby and plum are threaded with complex aromas of ripe, red fruits and hints of spices. On the palate, it reveals a full body with a harmonious balance between acidity and fine tannins. Each sip delivers a deep, lasting finish, making the Contino Graciano a perfect companion to hearty meals and sophisticated cheeseboards.

Tasting Notes

Red purple colour. Great aromatic intensity: mineral graphite notes and berries, blackcurrant, mentholated notes, eucalypus, fennel and white pepper. Complex, wide and dense palate, fruity and long finish with great acidity.

About the Winery

C.V.N.E

C.V.N.E, Compañía Vinícola del Norte de España, is a family-owned winery situated in the Rioja Alavesa region of Spain. This historic winery, renowned in Spain and globally, is an enduring legacy of the Real de Asúa family. Founded in 1879 by Eusebio and Raimundo Real de Asúa, the C.V.N.E winery has, for over a century, produced wines that have captivated the palates of even the most discerning wine enthusiasts.

The winery is composed of four individual wineries: Cune, Imperial, Viña Real, and Contino, each with its unique story and distinct method of wine production. Cune is the initial and the most recognised, with its workings based in Haro. Imperial, on the other hand, pays homage to the flagship wine produced at the turn of the 20th century. Viña Real, nestled on the Cerro de la Mesa, is renowned for its individualised, single vineyard wines. Contino, the last of the four wineries, specialises in Reserva and Gran Reserva, showcasing the potential of its single vineyards.

The wineries maintain a perfect symbiosis of tradition and modernity- from the exceptional and innovative winemaking facilities to their adoption of traditional wine-making processes. Apart from wine production, C.V.N.E is also famed for its distinctive and avant-garde architectural designs. The Viña Real facility, an impressive barrel designed by Bordeaux-based architect Philippe Mazières, stands as a testament to the winery's enduring love for quality and detail.

With a rich historical presence and a portfolio spanning a diverse range, C.V.N.E has affirmed a position of prestige in global viniculture. Whether you are a novice or an aficionado, C.V.N.E offers an immersive wine experience like no other.
