The wine matures for at least 24 months in French oak and perfectly demonstrates why this type of Rioja remains so beloved: ripe fruit, vanilla, licorice, soft spiciness, and a long, stately finish. With high international ratings and a strong Vivino score, this is a Gran Reserva offering both tradition and widely proven drinking pleasure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 data-section-id=\"14jexaw\" data-start=\"1542\" data-end=\"1565\"\u003eVineyards and region\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1567\" data-end=\"1648\"\u003eThis Gran Reserva comes from Rioja Alavesa, at the foot of the Sierra de Cantabria.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1650\" data-end=\"1841\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1650\" data-end=\"1673\"\u003eLocation \/ Origin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bodegas Campillo is located in Laguardia, in the heart of Rioja Alavesa.

He wanted to build a true château bodega in Rioja, surrounded by its own vineyards and entirely focused on quality from the grape. The name Campillo refers to Viña Campillo, one of the first family properties, and the winery grew into a recognizable name for stylish Rioja Alavesa with depth, aging, and elegance.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Eigen Import","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45455884976207,"sku":"7372","price":34.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0594\/9358\/0879\/files\/BodegasCampilloGranReserva2016D.O.Ca.Rioja.webp?v=1780652699","url":"https:\/\/perfectewijn.be\/en\/products\/bodegas-campillo-gran-reserva-rioja-2016","provider":"Perfecte Wijn","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
