Cune Ecológico 2021

CVNE (hentet 17. okt. 2026): Cune Ecológico 2021 – teknisk ark (producentens tekst, engelsk): Cune Organic 2021 The vineyard The vineyards used for Cune Organic belong to our usual suppliers in the region around Haro and San Vicente, which, in recent years, have opted for organic cultivation in their vineyards. The soils are mainly chalky clay, and the composts used are organic and of vegetal origin. The use of synthetic pesticides and herbicides has been avoided as well as any practice which could damage or modify the natural balance in the soil and environment. Winemaking Red wine obtained by organic viticulture and certified by the CPAER (ES-ECO-035RI) with the num. RI-1204-E-2020-1. The organically grown grapes were hand harvested and vinified individually in concrete tanks. Refrigeration of grapes at 12ºC for 12 hours to avoid oxidation of the must and maintain brightness in its colour. Spontaneous fermentation with natural yeast in stainless steel vats at a temperature of 24ºC in order to preserve the aromas and varietal expression of each grape variety. The wine was then aged in 300l oak barrels for 6 months in order to develop volume and complexity before bottling. Vintage / Harvest description The weather in Rioja during the 2021 growing season was erratic. The summer began dry but then rain in September became key for a more favorable evolution in the vineyard. In the higher, breezier vineyards as well as those of low and mid yields, the grapes improved significantly with this rainfall. The weather in October was perfect, with bright, sunny days and very cold nights, which lead to slow ripening. The grapes were healthy, well balanced and generally had good acidity, so enabling us to produce great wines with good ageing potential. The harvest began on the 16th of September and ended on the 21st of October. Tasting notes Purple colour due to its youth. Good aromatic intensity of notes of black fruits, such as blackberries and blueberries from the Mediterranean forests. A smooth entry on the palate, with a round and enveloping passage. Silky tannins and a slightly acid finish giving a fresh, long and fruity aftertaste. This is an ideal wine to enjoy with Mediterranean food, pasta, rice, cured ham, and all kinds of cheeses and meats. Recommended serving temperature between 16ºC and 17ºC. • Type of wine: Organic • Region of production: Rioja • Year: 2021 • Grape varieties: 60% Garnacha, 30% Tempranillo and 10% Graciano • Bottle type: Bordeaux • Bottle size: 75cl. • DOCa vintage rating: Very good • Alcoholic volume: 13.5% • Total acidity: 5.2 • pH: 3.7 • Volatile acidity: 0.64 • SO2 Free/Total: 28/60 • Total Polyphenols Index: 50 Analytical data Cune Organic is made with local grape varieties from vineyards of organic farming practices in Rioja. • Suitable for vegans • Natural cork • Paper labels are made with 100% recycled fiber • Aging and barrel type: 6 months in oak barrel of 1 wine, 300l. • CVNE vintage rating: Very good
