✨ Tekniske specifikationer

CVNE's Monopole is Spain's oldest registered white wine brand, first created in 1915. The 'Clásico' bottling is a magnificent resurrection of a lost historic style from the 1960s and 1970s. Traditionally, white Rioja struggled with low acidity, so CVNE's winemakers devised a brilliant, unorthodox solution: they blended a small percentage of biological Sherry (Manzanilla from Sanlúcar de Barrameda) into the Viura base wine before aging it in neutral oak casks. This historic practice, revived today, infuses the wine with a unique saline complexity, chamomile aromas, and a bone-dry, nutty character. Fermented and aged on its lees in large, seasoned oak barrels, it represents a living museum of Rioja's winemaking heritage, marrying the fresh, floral qualities of high-altitude Rioja Alta Viura with the savory, coastal whisper of Andalusian flor.
