"With the Campo Viejo Gran Reserva, what I seek every year is to produce a great Rioja wine, with character and persistence, that brings together all the know-how of this land. Made with choice grapes and aged for a long time, for me this Gran Reserva is a renewed classic" Elena Adell, Chief Winemaker

Ruby red color, deep and vibrant. Complex nose. It retains extraordinarily well the black fruit aromas of blackberries, blueberries, and plums. Gradually it opens up to reveal smoky, toasted wood nuances, with spices and hints of minerals and tobacco. On the palate is smooth with soft and velvety tannins, great palate weight, extraordinary balance acidity. Elegant and complex aftertaste, with hints of coffee, chocolate, tobacco and dark fruit.

Campo Viejo's dedication to Rioja winemaking, alongside the most advanced winemaking techniques available, has allowed us to create modern twists on traditional methods to deliver progressive styles of Rioja that satisfy todays discerning modern palates.

Food Pairing: Delicious with red meat, grills and roasts, game, mature and blue cheeses. Great with: lamb stew with chestnuts sauce.
