Vina Cubillo Rioja Crianza Bodega Lopez de Heredia – 2018
CHF 22.90
This Rioja Crianza comes from one of Lopez de Heredia’s three single vineyards just outside Haro. It was aged for three years in barrel and five years in bottle pre-release, making it older than the majority of Gran Reserva Riojas you will find on the market!
“The red 2018 Viña Cubillo Tinto Crianza is pretty and attractive, fresh and aromatic, floral, the result of a challenging year with lots of rain and high humidity. This is usually the last vineyard to be harvested, and the grapes were picked late, the 26th of October. It’s a blend of 70% Tempranillo, 20% Garnacho and 5% each Graciano and Mazuelo that matured in a combination of oak vats and well-seasoned American oak barrels for six years. It’s elegant and clean, young and undeveloped, with very fine tannins and a sleek, polished mouthfeel. It has 13.5% alcohol, a pH of 3.0 and 6.5 grams of acidity. This could be the finest Cubillo in recent times, and it’s a bargain.” 94/100 Wine Advocate
