Cune Crianza Rioja Tempranillo Blend 2015

Amazingly good at the price point! Hits all the right rioja notes, tasting like wines costing $10-15 more — 6 years ago

Bodegas Familia Chavarri

Gran Reserva Izarbe Rioja Tempranillo 2005

This couldn’t have been more different than the CUNE, despite being from the same region and only a year younger. Where the CUNE was delicate this was punchy. Ballerina versus a heavyweight. Really, really good. I’d love to get more from this producer. — 7 years ago

Gran Reserva Rioja Tempranillo Blend 2009

Dark purple in color. Smooth, not too complex. Easy to drink. Fair amount of sediment. Especially for a bottle less than ten years old. Cune, was founded in 1879 and is one of Spain's oldest and finest bodegas. Gran Reservas are very uncommon and account for a small percentage of the wine produced in the Rioja region. — 9 years ago

Reserva Cune Rioja Tempranillo Blend 2019

Bought with a discount at about 13 USD in equivalent Polish Złoty. It's a steal! The nose is very inviting with blackberry, black cherry, bacon, soy sauce, oak, a bit of tobacco too. What a nose ! The palate is very well made, with a great acid drive, some width, some matter, some nice blackberry and black cherry notes, some oily, a tiny bit thicker mouthfeel, some gentle, slightly drying tannins kick off in the rear, delivering a sandy layer over a very long, fruity, meaty, savoury finish that goes on for a very long while. This punches way above its price tag. Great stuff and even better than the 2020 I had some months ago. — 6 months ago

Cune Rias Baixas Albariño 2023

Straw gold color with slight green highlights. Aromas of unripe stone fruit, white flowers and a beautiful note of sea spray. Flavors of peach and citrus fruit with distinctive mineral and slate notes. Nice touch of saline on the long and crisp finish. Beautiful mouth coating texture. Elegant, fresh tasting and beautifully balanced. Outstanding QPR! — 10 months ago

Cune imperial reserve 2019.
Tasty red. Reminds me of when we were there. Complex but nice. Opened up for new years. Enjoyed a nice glass prior to falling asleep waiting for the ball to drop. Dark ruby red. Little tannins. Nose was floral. Really easy to drink. Had it second day which was great. Happy new years with a flight of tacos (9/10). 40-50$. Would absolutely recommend this wine. So smooth. So silky. Like a nye dress. It s a 10-9…

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. — 4 years ago

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. — 5 years ago

Gran Reserva Faustino I Rioja Tempranillo Blend 2005

Haven’t had this vintage in 5 years., and the extra 5 years of aging makes a difference.

I also had the 1994 exactly a year ago, and it’s even better than that.

Great value considering how aged it is. Smooth. Berry bonanza.

I play a game with my wife where she picks a bottle from my cabinet while I grill a steak (in this case, a 1.25kg dry aged porterhouse) and I blind taste the wine and tell her what it is. We made a bet that if I got the correct bottle (out of over 50) that she had to go and spend $150 on a bottle. If I got it wrong, I couldn’t shop at the LCBO for two weeks (that’s like a year for anyone else).

I guessed old world. Spanish. Approx 10 years old... but thought it was a 2010 Cune Gran Reserva.
