Campillo Reserva Colección

Campillo Reserva Colección is a high-quality red wine from the Rioja DOCa region of Spain, produced by Bodegas Campillo in Laguardia, Rioja Alavesa. The wine is made almost exclusively from Tempranillo grapes and undergoes a longer aging process of at least 22 months in small American and French oak barrels, followed by additional bottle aging.

In the glass, it displays a deep cherry red color with a ruby ​​rim. The nose is intense and complex, with aromas of ripe black cherries, blackberries, dried plums, and currants, underpinned by distinct notes of vanilla, coffee, cocoa powder, tobacco, and light toast. On the palate, the Campillo Reserva Colección possesses good structure, clearly perceptible yet fine tannins, and an elegant, vibrant acidity that, despite its power, makes the wine appear fresh and balanced.

The finish is long, spicy, and harmonious, with lingering aromas of dark berries, toasty notes, and warm spice. This wine is ideal with grilled beef, lamb chops, braised dishes, game, or aged cheeses. It should be served at around 16–18 °C, preferably slightly decanted. Campillo Reserva Colección is considered an elegant, age-worthy Rioja with great potential, suitable for both special occasions and fine dining.
