Cune Organic 2020

Deep ruby red in colour with good aromatic intensity showing forest fruits such as blackberries, redcurrants and wild fruits. On the palate the red fruit characteristic of Tempranillo dominates along with floral notes. Barel ageing give sa lightly spiced touch and a long, balanced finish.

Vineyards

The organically grown grapes were hand harvested and then held at 12 degrees for 12 hours to avoid oxidation of the must and maintain the bright colour.

Vintage

The 2020 vintage was not easy for the cultivation and production of the organic wine. Local hailstorms in May, a rainy June and a hot September with storms meant that we had to carry out a manual selection of the best quality grapes in order to make this wine. Picking was therefore very selective depending on the ripeness of the grapes, which was uneven. The grapes were very healthy on arrival at the winery. Due to these weather conditions, the harvest began 10 days earlier than the previous year, beginning on September 9th and ending on October 9th.

Winemaking

The alcoholic fermentation took place in stainless steel vats with naturally occurring wild yeasts and at a temperature of 24 degrees to preserve the aromas and varietal expression of the Tempranillo grape. The wine was then aged in oak barrels for four months in order to develop power and volume before bottling.
