Making process

Winemaking

Are you looking for a Reserva that preserves fruit and gains complexity without losing balance? Campo Viejo Reserva 2019 is produced with fermentation in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature, accompanied by extended macerations that favour a slow and precise extraction. From blending Tempranillo, Graciano and Mazuelo, the winery builds an expressive and well-defined base, designed to maintain harmony between ripe fruit and the finer, and more spicy notes from the winemaking process.

Aging

The oak nuances integrate with the ripe fruit thanks to 18 months of ageing in French and American oak barrels, followed by a further 18 months of bottle ageing before release onto the market. Therefore, Campo Viejo Reserva 2019 completes a total ageing of 3 years, delivering balance, smoothness and a pronounced aromatic complexity.

Vineyard

Description

Looking for a reserva that combines precision, balance and a very well-tuned fruity expression? Campo Viejo Reserva 2019 is produced from selected grapes from vineyards in the three Rioja zones, chosen for their potential within the estate’s own parceling. It is composed mainly of Tempranillo, complemented by Graciano and Mazuelo, a combination that brings freshness, complexity and that integration so characteristic between ripe fruit and ageing notes. The result is a classic and approachable red, faithful to the Rioja style and designed to offer a round, balanced profile and very versatile on the palate.

Viticulture

Campo Viejo Reserva 2019 originates from careful viticulture focused on balance, with grapes selected for their potential in the plots of Campo Viejo's vineyards and sourced from the three areas of Rioja. The winery operates from a sustainable approach, with environmental commitment and carbon footprint certification, seeking to express the fruit's personality without compromising precision in the vineyard. The result is a modern Reserva, true to its origin and designed to offer freshness, structure and harmony.

Tasting notes

View

Bright ruby red colour with a deep golden rim.

Nose

Campo Viejo Reserva 2019 presents itself as complex and well defined on the nose, with a very well-balanced harmony between ripe fruit and the nuances from the oak. The initial aromas recall cherries, black plums and ripe blackberries, giving way to notes of cloves, pepper, vanilla and coconut, while in the background the aromas developed during bottle ageing emerge, adding greater depth and elegance.

Mouth

While many reservas rely on oak to gain presence, Campo Viejo Reserva 2019 opts for a much more refined and balanced palate, where ripe fruit continues to dominate and the oak accompanies without imposing. On the palate it is smooth, with polished tannins, medium body and a pleasant texture that makes it very versatile from the first sip. The result is a rounded and tasty red, with good structure and a long, clean and full of flavour finish.
