Cune Organic Rioja Tempranillo Blend 2022

Blend of 60% Garnacha, 30% Tempranillo and 10% Graciano, aged for six months in oak, deep Ruby color with aromas of fruit, floral and herb notes as Garnacha is taking lead. On the palate flavors of cherry and blackberry with licorice and herbs. Fine chalky tannins, medium+ finish ending with fruit, herb and mineral character. — 4 months ago

Finca Vallejo

Roble Ribera del Duero Tempranillo 2020

At La Bogeda restaurant at Porto de La Duquesa in Costa del Sol Spain. This was supposed to be a Cune wine but the bottle didn’t say so. $18 on the restaurant wine list. Ok but would try other offerings before revisiting this one. — a year ago

Cune Gran Reserva Rioja Tempranillo Blend 2016

Presented to me double-blind at Tasting Group. The wine is a deep ruby color with a slightly purple hue; medium+ viscosity with moderate staining of the tears. No signs of sediment. On the nose, the wine is developing with notes of black and red fruit: Ranier cherries and blackberries along with some dried earth, soft wood notes, some faint baking spices. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ tannins (that seem to build) and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is medium+ and comes off a touch reserved in the end. Initial conclusions: this could be a Tempranillo, Sangiovese, Grenache-based blend or Bordeaux-blend from either Spain, Italy, France, the United States or Australia but the fruit doesn’t impress so I’m leaning away from the New World. I don’t get enough candied fruit to put me in the Southern Rhone and I think the oak treatment seems a bit liberal for that. And if this Sangiovese, I would be pissed. So I’m calling Tempranillo, from Spain, Rioja, Reserva, 2018. Daaaaang. I was close. Drink now with patience and enjoy through 2036.

Bodegas Beronia

Crianza Rioja Tempranillo 2017

Another Puerto Rican holiday find: like CUNE, but not. Very fresh, cola & blackberries, medium + acid, very swelte & neat. I prefer the older reserva & gran reserva Beronias, which also are a good deal. — 2 years ago

I think I got this at Costco Kauai & don’t remember the cost but under $20. Great value. We buy lots of different Cune wines when in Spain but never saw this one. — 10 months ago
