Viña Real … A unique building or a cellar?
Viña Real is a winery designed for the production, aging and bottling of the Viña Real range of wines, using the most innovative methods of production. This brand was developed by Cuné in 1940's . Sixty years later, Cuné took the decision to finally give Viña Real its real home, where not only is the wine produced but also aged and bottled.
In this cellar, the French architect Philippe Mazieres, has been able to combine the concepts of man, nobility and modernity with the use of concrete, wood and stainless-steel, the main components of this new cellar.
Viña Real is composed of an enormous building in the shape of an oak vat, of Red Cedar wood from Canada, a building and two enormous tunnels drilled inside the hill.
