Product Description
Details
Produced by the prestigious Compañía Vinícola del Norte de España (CVNE), the red wine Viña Real Crianza is made from 90% Tempranillo, complemented with Mazuelo,Grenache and Graciano.
The 2016 vintage of this Spanish red wine was a very good one. Harvest was carried out during October, that is, significantly later than usual.
The grapes were manually harvested, destemmed and fermented in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature.
After the completion of malolactic fermentation, this red wine from La Rioja was transferred into French and American oak barrels, where it was aged for 14 months.
We suggest that you aerate Viña Real Crianza 2016 from the DOCa Rioja 30 minutes before you drink it.
