The red wine Contino Rioja DOCa Reserva, vintage 2016 from the winery Bodegas Cune has been rated in 2021 by Peter Moser with 95 Falstaff points. It is a wine made from the grape varieties Tempranillo, Graciano, Mazuelo, Grenache from the region Rioja Alta in Spain.
Strong ruby with purple reflections, brightening to a delicate ochre rim. Black cherries, with a mineral touch, plums, fresh orange zest, and a touch of oak. It has juicy wild berries and fine, silky tannins. It is extremely elegant, very lively, and animated, with nougat on the finish. It has length and certain ageing potential. A modern Rioja, but tradition-conscious, and classy.
