Description

Fruit for Imperial Reserva and Imperial Gran Reserva are obtained entirely from CVNE vineyards at Vilalba, in the Rioja Alta region. At almost 600 meters these are amongst the highest vineyards in Rioja. The Microclimate delivers high definition fruit and clear structure, perhaps the most claret-like in style found here. The Reserva benefits from hand-picking and table selection of bunches prior to fermentation, clear quality indicators. The wine is made from 95% Tempranillo and is barrel-matured for 20 months in French and American oak.


VINTAGE / HARVEST DESCRIPTION
Abundant rainfall and the absence of extreme temperatures during winter
allowed the vineyards to keep enough water reserves for an optimum growth.
The cycle slowed down some weeks during July and August, but a sunny and
dry September favoured a very good phenolic maturation of the grapes.
Selective harvest in the vineyards and further hand sorting at the wineries was
necessary. Harvest in our vineyards took place from mid-September until early
November, with a good quality for young wines in the first weeks and the ideal
quality for reservas and above in the last weeks.
TASTING NOTE
Stylish, bright ruby red and very intense in colour. Highly aromatic on the nose
with hints of red and black autumn fruit aromas along with some toasted and
spicy notes of sweet Bourbon character. Full and meaty in the palate with great
depth and a fine, long, velvety and complex finish.
