CVNE Corona Gran Reserva 2016
Descrizione
Il CVNE Corona Gran Reserva è un bianco semidolce a base di Viura, ispirato allo stile dei vini prodotti alla fine degli anni '30. L'uva è stata vendemmiata a dicembre per ottenere la muffa nobile. Dopo la fermentazione e un lungo affinamento in rovere francese, si ottiene un vino dal profumo estremamente complesso e dal gusto intenso, caratterizzato da una delicata dolcezza e da una potente acidità.

Recensioni degli esperti
The 2016 Corona Gran Reserva is an unusual semi-sweet white wine. It has 15% alcohol with a pH of 3.37, 7.6 grams of acidity and 33 grams of residual sugar. The vineyard is in Villalba de Rioja where fog facilitates the creation of Botrytis cinerea. The must fermented in oak barrels, and the fermentation was stopped, cooling the wine down to leave around 30 grams of unfermented sugar. It had a long élevage, six years, in barrels of different sizes. The long time in the cave gave them a very specific nose (like I see, for example, in the wines from López de Heredia), with notes of mushroom and damp earth, chalky and yeasty, with notes in common with the Monopole Gran Reserva (and the 1939 Corona, as a matter of fact...). It has a touch of volatility, smoky hints and a vibrant palate, lifted by the acidity. The sugar goes unnoticed. It's quite consistent with the previous year. 1,150 bottles produced. It was bottled in December 2023. (Luis Gutiérrez)
The first vintage of this brilliant wine was one of the discoveries of my 2022 report and I have no reason to change my opinion of its unique qualities. Made with Viura picked on December 20, it spends five years in barrel before release. Medium dry at 30 grams of sugar, it has notes of botrytis sweetness, gentle, nutty oxidation, crystallised lemon peel, a drizzle of honey and a tangy passion fruit and citrus finish. 2025-35.
Popcorn, smoke, honeycomb, honeydew melon, butterscotch and wax. Beautifully flattering, with about 30 g/L of residual sugar. But it’s intense in flavors, with bright acidity, striking length and harmony. A unique wine. Drink or hold. (Zekun Shuai)
