On the nose, Campillo Gran Reserva Rioja offers a complex bouquet of ripe red fruits, such as cherries and plums, intertwined with elegant notes of vanilla, cedar, and tobacco. These aromas are a result of the wine's extended aging in oak barrels, which adds depth and complexity to the overall profile. The palate is rich and full-bodied, with velvety tannins that provide a smooth and luxurious mouthfeel. Flavors of blackberries, blackcurrants, and hints of spice are beautifully balanced by the wine's well-integrated acidity. The long and persistent finish leaves a lasting impression, with lingering notes of dark chocolate and toasted oak. Campillo Gran Reserva Rioja is a wine that can be enjoyed now, but it also has great aging potential. If properly stored, it will continue to evolve and develop over the next decade, revealing even more layers of complexity and nuance.
