    From Grupo Faustino, this single-vineyard red (90% Tempranillo and 10% Graciano) aged 30 months in French oak, whose presence is apparent on the nose alongside toffee, wild cherry, and cedar. It’s a bright, elegant, and white-peppered beauty with balanced acidity.

    A strong vintage with medium body. Dark, earthy plums and red cherries, spices and hints of earth and leather here. Good balance and persistence. Drink now and for the next decade. Elegant.

    Marked with creamy vanilla new oak, this is a rich and polished wine that is a touch confected. It is full-bodied with notes of roast nuts and smoke; an exuberant style that people will love. Drinking Window 2018 - 2023

    With a developed nose of forest floor, cigar box, sweet spices and cured meat, the 2009 Gran Reserva is the most classical within the Campillo range. It has plenty of tannins and feels a bit developed, like the fruit is now receding and the tannic structure might remain. I'd drink it sooner rather than later. 30,000 bottles produced. It's been in bottle since the summer of 2013, after 30 months in new barriques.

Bodegas Campillo, Spain
Bodegas Campillo Winery Video
In the heart of the famed Rioja region, Spain's premier winemaking appellation and source of the country's finest red wines, Bodegas Campillo is set like a rare jewel against the dramatic backdrop of the Cantabria Mountains.

Campillo is produced by Bodegas Faustino, one of the most celebrated names in modern Spanish winemaking and the Rioja's single largest source of Reserva and Gran Reserva wines. However, this showcase winery is the Julio Faustino Martinez' personal mission create limited production, hand-crafted wines of exceptional quality united with architectural beauty.

Martinez selected 125 acres in the Laguardia region of the Rioja Alavesa, widely considered the finest area in the Rioja, as the site of his prized estate. The Campillo vineyards, characterized by arid, lime-clay soil and sheltered from extreme weather by the nearby mountain range, offer optimum growing conditions for Tempranillo, the classic Rioja varietal.

Hailed as the star red variety in Spain’s most celebrated wine region, Tempranillo from Rioja, or simply labeled, “Rioja,” produces elegant wines with complex notes of red and black fruit, crushed rock, leather, toast and tobacco, whose best examples are fully capable of decades of improvement in the cellar.

Rioja wines are typically a blend of fruit from its three sub-regions: Rioja Alta, Rioja Alavesa and Rioja Oriental, although specific sub-region (zonas), village (municipios) and vineyard (viñedo singular) wines can now be labeled. Rioja Alta and Alavesa, at the highest elevations, are considered to be the source of the brightest, most elegant fruit, while grapes from the warmer and drier, Rioja Oriental, produce wines with deep color, great body and richness.
