CVNE, Real De Asùa 2020
CVNE Real de Asúa 2020 is a brilliant modern Rioja from one of the region’s most respected and historic producers—but with a contemporary twist. Made in honour of the Real de Asúa brothers who founded CVNE back in 1879, this wine brings heritage and craftsmanship into sharp, stylish focus. Sourced from a single vineyard in Villalba, one of the cooler spots in Rioja Alta, this 100% Tempranillo is all about purity, precision, and poise. The 2020 vintage is particularly elegant—lifted and aromatic, with notes of ripe red berries, sweet spice, and just a touch of cedar from the French oak. There’s lovely texture here too, with fine tannins and a long, graceful finish that hints at its ageing potential. Refined enough for a special dinner, but so beautifully balanced that it never feels overdone, it's a must-have for Rioja lovers.
Volnay Premier Cru Santenots, Domaine Éric Boigelot 2019
"2019 is a vintage with tremendous charm and grace, for both whites and reds - and this Santenots, a 1er Cru site bordering Meursault, embodies the perfumed elegance and supple, silken red fruits I associate with Volnay. It will continue to develop and soften but the current brightness and vivacity has its own appeal and it never disappoints on each occasion opened." Tom Harrow, Head Wine Guru For years, the Boigelot family sold part of their crop to none other than Coche-Dury, but Charles Boigelot is now intent on taking the domaine to new heights - and it’s working. Even Neal Martin has said he’s “ keeping an eye on ” them. The 2019 Santenots captures everything we love about Volnay: graceful yet generous, with bright cherry, raspberry, and gentle baking spice. Now hitting its stride, it’s silky, balanced, and effortlessly charming.
