Conclusion
This Gran Reserva is the best and most exclusive from its bodega. This Cune has been aged for two years in American oak and France oak barrels. Then it's been aged for 3 more years in the bottle in the cellars of their bodega. Its something very special in a bottle and I would definitely recommend trying this beautiful red Tempranillo from Cune. Very complex and beautifully done.
