Somm Note

Winemaker Notes

Cherry red, violet nose, intense, tense, youthful. Aromatic, fresh red fruit, some licorice, the wood is there but you have to look for it. Once in the mouth you feel the structure, the volume, but its all restrained, the tannin is fine and the wine is long. So easy to drink. What it must have been like to drink 1920s Viña Real before beginning the lengthy barrel ageing. This is a complex wine with great ageing potential. It expresses their terroir from Laguardia, Rioja Alavesa.

Professional Ratings

  • 93
    This has aromas of wild thyme, licorice, peppercorns, blackcurrants and cloves. Spicy, supple and delicious with silky tannins and a juicy, bright palate. Slightly chewy. So drinkable now, but better in two or three years. 100% tempranillo. Drink or hold.

Vina Real  Winery Image

Owned by the CVNE family , Viña Real dates back to 1920. Today this winery is not only a winemaking pioneer in ageing Rioja Alavesa but a timeless brand that has always remained faithful to its roots, with authenticity and sincerity at the fore.

Ever since then, a meticulous balance between tradition and modernity has defined the shape and content of Viña Real.

2004 saw the inauguration of the new Viña Real winery in Laguardia, where the whole process takes place from receiving the grapes to dispatching bottled wines.

Rioja Alavesa grapes are at the very heart of this winery. The winery’s name was inspired by the proximity of its vineyards to the old Camino Real. Clinging to this same patch of earth and blending into the Cerro de la Mesa hill is a monumental 30,000-square metre vat: this is the Viña Real building, an iconic design built in 2004 that masterfully blends the construction into the Riojan terrain.

Hailed as the star red variety in Spain’s most celebrated wine region, Tempranillo from Rioja, or simply labeled, “Rioja,” produces elegant wines with complex notes of red and black fruit, crushed rock, leather, toast and tobacco, whose best examples are fully capable of decades of improvement in the cellar.

Rioja wines are typically a blend of fruit from its three sub-regions: Rioja Alta, Rioja Alavesa and Rioja Oriental, although specific sub-region (zonas), village (municipios) and vineyard (viñedo singular) wines can now be labeled. Rioja Alta and Alavesa, at the highest elevations, are considered to be the source of the brightest, most elegant fruit, while grapes from the warmer and drier, Rioja Oriental, produce wines with deep color, great body and richness.
