Reserva

1975 Rioja Tempranillo, Grenache Noir, Carignan

Campo Viejo Reserva from the renowned Rioja region stands as a testament to the exceptional qualities of its varietals—Tempranillo, Grenache Noir, and Carignan. This distinguished red wine boasts a rich, garnet hue that entices the senses. On the palate, it reveals a full-bodied structure complemented by a well-balanced acidity, giving it a delightful vibrancy and depth. The fruit intensity is prominent, showcasing luscious flavors of dark cherries and ripe plums, harmonized with subtle notes of spice and tobacco. Its tannins are firm yet elegant, providing a robust backbone that evolves gracefully over time. This wine is expertly crafted to be decidedly dry, making it a perfect companion for hearty dishes. The 1975 vintage reflects the hallmark characteristics of the region, resulting in a wine that is not only expressive but also beautifully age-worthy, inviting enjoyment for years to come.
