Rated 93 by Wine Advocate
The second vintage of the Reserva white is the 2019 Cune Blanco Reserva, a style of wine they produced in the 1950s and 1960s—dry wines aged in barrel with Viura grapes, looking for more tension and working more in the selection of oak. The wine is 13% alcohol and has a pH of 3.26 (without malolactic) and a classical aromatic profile that is spicy and smoky with notes of dried flowers and chamomile. It fermented in a combination of concrete and oak vats and barrels and matured in second and third use French oak barrels for 18 months. It's medium-bodied but with juicy fruit making it rich and easy to drink, with some developed notes reminiscent of diesel and white tea. It's dry, chalky and tasty. 10,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in August 2021.

A distinctive white, this opens with generous aromas of fragrant ground anise, graphite and crushed pine, followed by up-front flavors of poached apricot and blood orange that transition to dried white cherry and salted almond notes reminiscent of a good fino Sherry. Bright and graceful, with well-knit, mouthwatering acidity and a lingering finish that echoes the cherry and almond profile. Drink now through 2028. 2,500 cases made, 600 cases imported.

Region: La Rioja

The wines of La Rioja have been famed throughout the world for many centuries, due to their excellence of flavor and deep, complex character. La Rioja is a green and fertile region of Spain, situated on the north of the country, yet sheltered from the cold and wet Atlantic oceanic influences by the expansive Cantabrian mountain range near the coast. La Rioja's most famous and widely loved grape varietal is the Tempranillo, which is grown in the majority of the vineyards in the region. However, many of the best wines of La Rioja are blended varieties, often featuring the aromatic Garnacha varietal for added perfume. The region also produces several extremely fine white wines, usually made from the Viura varietal grape, which are aged in barrels for extra flavor and aroma.

Country: Spain

Ever since the Phoenicians and Romans brought their knowledge of vine cultivation to Spanish soils, the country's culture has grown alongside wine production, with wine being a vital part of Spanish identity and Spanish traditions. Each region of Spain has a wine quite distinct from the others, and it is produced by smallholders and families as much as it is by large companies and established wineries. From the relatively mild and lush regions of La Rioja to the arid plateaus that surround Madrid, grapes are grown in abundance for the now booming Spanish wine industry, and new laws and regulations have recently been put in place to keep the country's standards high. By combining traditional practices with modern technology, Spanish wineries are continuing to produce distinctive wines of great character, flavor and aroma, with the focus shifting in recent decades to quality over quantity.
