This lot comprises six bottles of 1952 vintage ViƱa Real Reserva Especial produced by Compania Vinicola del Norte de Espana (CVNE)in the Spanish wine region of Rioja.
Rioja is a classic amongst fine wines, known for being a long-lasting, elegant red, usually with cooler aromas. Rioja wine is created in the cooler northern part of Spain, in the wine-growing region of the same name. The Rioja wine type was first established in the 19th century, when the area experienced an increase in prosperity. Bordeaux was used as a blueprint for the development, which is why oak barrels were used for wine storage from the very beginning. Riojas are largely cuvƩes, of which the native Tempranillo red grape variety contributes the most in terms of flavor. What sets Riojas apart from the rest is that they are sold at varying stages of the ripening process: as Crinza (two years), Reserva (three years) and Gran Reserva (five years). Before reaching stores, the wines are matured in oak barrels and bottles. Just as with other red wine classics, there are numerous different styles. The traditional Rioja requires longer to reach its optimal maturity. Additionally, the so-called modern style ripens quicker due to specific vine-growing and oenological conditions.
1952 was one of the best vintages ever for Rioja. Especially Gran Reserva wines from this year will be wonderful to drink now.
The fill levels are comparatively low (< 7 cm), but signify only a minor risk. The label are soiled and some are damaged. The capsules are in perfect condition.
