✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Campo Viejo, established in 1959 by winemaker José Ortigüela, has become synonymous with the vibrant spirit of Rioja. The winery's modern, subterranean facility in Logroño is designed to harmonize with the rolling hills of the landscape, keeping the wines naturally cool. This classic Tempranillo is crafted to showcase the pure, expressive character of Spain's noble grape. Sourced from vineyards across the three sub-regions of Rioja—Alta, Alavesa, and Oriental—the grapes benefit from a mix of clay, limestone, and alluvial soils. To preserve its lively red fruit profile, the wine undergoes fermentation in stainless steel before a brief aging period of approximately four months in American oak barrels. This gentle touch of wood imparts delicate notes of vanilla and sweet spice without overpowering the bright cherry and plum flavors that define this accessible, classic Rioja style.
🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten
Campo Viejo blev grundlagt i 1959 af vinmagerne José Ortigüela og Bernardo Beristain og har siden udviklet sig til en af de mest ikoniske og indflydelsesrige ambassadører for Spaniens berømte Rioja-region. Bodegaen arbejder ud fra et innovativt og bæredygtigt underjordisk vineri, der er integreret i Logroños bølgende landskab, hvor de forener Riojas stolte vinfremstillingstraditioner med moderne vinifikationsteknikker. Huset fokuserer på klassiske, oprindelige druesorter – især Tempranillo samt Garnacha, Graciano og Mazuelo – høstet på tværs af Riojas alsidige underregioner. Campo Viejo er internationalt anerkendt for sine livlige og udtryksfulde rødvine, der spænder fra frugtdrevne vine til elegante, fadlagrede Reserva- og Gran Reserva-aftapninger.
