Heiner Lobenberg om:
Rioja CVNE Imperial Reserva 2020

95+
/100

Superklassisk Rioja, men klart defineret og præcis i den lige linje. Saftig, fint drikkeflow og masser af personlighed. Arketypisk historisk bedste Rioja-udtryk.

Tim Atkin om: Rioja CVNE Imperial Reserva

Imperial Reserva is one of those Riojas that never seems to disappoint. Now aged entirely in 33% new French oak, seeing no American barrels, it's a seamless, refreshing, adroitly blended cuvée of Tempranillo and 15% Garnacha, Graciano and Mazuelo. Structured, serious and complex, it's still a baby, but has the power, density and backbone to develop slowly in bottle.

Suckling om: Rioja CVNE Imperial Reserva

A tight, structured Rioja with blackcurrants, sandalwood, coffee and cassis on the nose, followed by a chewy, toasty and medium- to full-bodied palate. Firm, dusty tannins. Compact. Better after 2026.

Decanter om: Rioja CVNE Imperial Reserva

Beautiful nose with lifted herbal notes hovering over the lush black and blue fruit. Tannins are fresh and well presented lending fluidity to the fruit. The mineral backbone as further support to the framework. An alluring, long finish of zesty citrus married with herbal intensity (oregano and thyme).

Parker om: Rioja CVNE Imperial Reserva

The 2020 Imperial Reserva was produced with a blend of Tempranillo and 15% Graciano, Mazuelo and Garnacha grapes that were put through optical sorting and fermented in oak vats by vineyard, and the wine matured for 24 months in barrels, 70% French and the rest American. It has a shy nose that takes time to open up in the glass, but it is surprisingly harmonious and balanced and fresh for the year. It has a little more ripeness, but there's no excess at all; it has 14% alcohol, a pH of 3.65 and 5.44 grams of acidity. It has notes of spices, cigar box and ash, berries and wild herbs and a sleek and polished palate with resolved tannins. 150,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in September 2023.

Galloni om: Rioja CVNE Imperial Reserva

The 2020 Reserva Imperial is 85% Tempranillo, 5% Garnacha, 5% Graciano and 5% Mazuelo from estate vineyards in Torremontalbo and Villalba, Rioja Alta. Aged 24 months in 30% American and 70% French oak barrels, red fruit like sweet and sour cherry define the aromatic profile, with restrained oak on the finish. Balanced, with a gentle chalky texture and medium freshness, this is a long-lasting, harmonious, classic Rioja.

Bodegas Contino

Bodegas Contino ligger i Laserna på alluvial jord med masser af kalksten og småsten nær Ebro, i en bugtning af floden nedenfor Laguardia i Rioja Alavesa, klart den bedste region i Rioja og dermed i Spanien med hensyn til terroir og mikroklima.
