The multi-vintage approach to blending in Rioja, known as 'CVC', has become a really fashionable tool to get the best expression of the wine in the cellar at any given time. Vintage expression in wine is a wonderful thing but removing that restriction and having access to all the barrels regardless of age can yield a really special wine. So much so that many Rioja houses use the CVC classification for limited-edition bottlings that can fetch quite a price. You need the access though and this partnership is giving us exactly that.
