Origin
Viña Real is part of CVNE, founded in 1879 and still family owned. The Viña Real winery is relatively new; an imposing structure resembling the top of a wine barrel. Quite a mature Reserva, this is sourced primarily from Rioja Alavesa and made only in top vintages.
Taste
Ruby in colour with spicy aromas and ripe autumn fruit. The palate is round, with good ripe tannins, notes of vanilla and a warm and lingering finish.
Enjoy
Drinking well now with rich meat dishes or fine cheeses.

    Excellent Rioja

    I tasted this excellent wine at a friend's house and the following day ordered some for personal consumption. Sadly and without any warning I was sent the 2008 vintage, rather than the 2006 that I ordered and paid for. Online research suggests the 2008 may eventually prove superior to its 2006 relative, but I shall have to wait and see. Poor marks for customer satisfaction on this occasion Majestic. The 2006 is excellent value for money at £13.99 per bottle.
