Winemaker Notes

Clean and bright, medium high robe, deep cherry red color developing into ruby. Intense, complex, ripe fruit, spicy notes, cinnamon, well integrated barrel notes of vanilla and cedar. Intense, well structured, round tannin. Very long finish, toasted notes, dried fruit sensations.

Matches will with any kind of meat, grilled or fried potatoes, mushrooms or ham, and oily fish. Also a great accompaniment to medium aged cheese, berry dessert, rice and all kinds of pasta.

Professional Ratings

  • 92
    A smooth nose of spicy blackberry melds with accents of dried cheese and vanilla. On the palate, this is muscular and a bit fleshy. Plum, spice and berry flavors finish with power and purpose; drink through 2027.
  • 90
    Big blue fruit and discreet oak on the nose, then an appealing balance of fruit and tannin on the medium body, the finish moderately tannic and quite long. Drink now or hold.

Bodegas Campillo, Spain
Bodegas Campillo Winery Video
In the heart of the famed Rioja region, Spain's premier winemaking appellation and source of the country's finest red wines, Bodegas Campillo is set like a rare jewel against the dramatic backdrop of the Cantabria Mountains.

Campillo is produced by Bodegas Faustino, one of the most celebrated names in modern Spanish winemaking and the Rioja's single largest source of Reserva and Gran Reserva wines. However, this showcase winery is the Julio Faustino Martinez' personal mission create limited production, hand-crafted wines of exceptional quality united with architectural beauty.

Martinez selected 125 acres in the Laguardia region of the Rioja Alavesa, widely considered the finest area in the Rioja, as the site of his prized estate. The Campillo vineyards, characterized by arid, lime-clay soil and sheltered from extreme weather by the nearby mountain range, offer optimum growing conditions for Tempranillo, the classic Rioja varietal.

Hailed as the star red variety in Spain’s most celebrated wine region, Tempranillo from Rioja, or simply labeled, “Rioja,” produces elegant wines with complex notes of red and black fruit, crushed rock, leather, toast and tobacco, whose best examples are fully capable of decades of improvement in the cellar.

Rioja wines are typically a blend of fruit from its three sub-regions: Rioja Alta, Rioja Alavesa and Rioja Oriental, although specific sub-region (zonas), village (municipios) and vineyard (viñedo singular) wines can now be labeled. Rioja Alta and Alavesa, at the highest elevations, are considered to be the source of the brightest, most elegant fruit, while grapes from the warmer and drier, Rioja Oriental, produce wines with deep color, great body and richness.
