L'avis des experts

The Wine Advocate:

The current release of the first wine ever produced at CVNE is the 2016 Cune Reserva, a classical blend of Tempranillo with 15% Garnacha, Graciano and Mazuelo from Haro. 2016 was a cooler vintage that delivered wines with less alcohol and good freshness, and this textbook example fermented in 20,000-liter stainless steel vats and matured in French and American oak barrels for 24 months. It is a bit austere and a little lighter but very tasty and fresh, without the richness of the warmer year but still very gourmand and profound for the price. It finishes dry and with fine tannins. A Reserva for the table and the best Reserva since the 2010. They produced 500,000 bottles of this wine. It was bottled in February 2019.

James Suckling:

A firm and chewy red with chocolate, walnut, and berry character. Medium body. Lots of spice. Some sweet tobacco. Flavorful finish. Firm and silky tannins. Drink or hold.
