September 2016 Auction

Imperial Tinto 1959

Imperial is one of the fine cellars owned by Compania Vinicola del Norte de Espania (CVNE), with it's stand-alone facilities located in CVNE's original winery.  As a range, Imperial Rioja was first bottled in the 1920s and took its name from the unique bottle size in which the wine was sold - Imperial Pints for the UK market.

Grapes are sourced from selected vineyards which keep their average vine age in excess of 20 years and exclusively from the Rioja Alta subregion thus giving the wine a full character influenced by the cool breezes of the Atlantic Ocean.

This 1959 vintage is likely to be a typical Rioja blend dominated by Tempranillo (about 85%) with some Garnacha (10-15%) and possibly a small volume of Mazuelo (to 5%).
