Description

Campo Viejo Rioja 2020

TEMPRANILLO

Fermentation in stainless steel vats at a controlled temperature of around 25ºC.

Maceration with skins for approximately 12 days.

The wine spends 4 months in American oak casks before rounding off its ageing in the bottle.

Tasting note:

Leading with beautifully ripe black plum and berry fruit, and the brooding, dark earthy/cacao complexity typical of great Merlot, the wine also displays more lifted aromatic hints of violet, lavender, vanilla, cedar and spice. The palate is full bodied and powerful with a plush richness and weight balanced by gentle acidity and an exceptionally fine grained, ripe tannin structure that lends the wine great presence across the full length of the palate.

Food Matching:

Perfect with pasta, poultry and fresh light cheeses, grilled chicken, small bites (light cheese, grilled vegetables).

Varieties: 100% Tempranillo
