Campo Viejo Rioja Tempranillo 2022

Campo Viejo Rioja Tempranillo is a fresh, fruit-forward introduction to Rioja's signature grape, made from 100% Tempranillo grown in Spain's most storied red wine region. A deep cherry-red hue gives way to ripe red fruit aromas lifted by vanilla and sweet spice. The palate is smooth and lively, with flavours of red berries, vanilla and cocoa carrying through to a long, elegant finish, framed by moderate, supple tannins. Approachable without being simple, it's the kind of everyday Rioja built for weeknight pasta, grilled chicken or a plate of light, fresh cheeses - no special occasion required.

What the winery says:
Crafted from 100% premium Tempranillo, this is a fresh and lively fruit expression of the variety. Rich in aroma and pronounced in intensity, it leads with ripe red fruit before wood nuances bring gently sweet vanilla and other sweet spices. On the palate it's perfumed, soft and fresh, with a long finish leaving memories of red fruit, vanilla and cocoa. A versatile match for pasta, poultry, grilled chicken and fresh, light cheeses.
