Bodegas Campillo, Rioja Gran Reserva 2017

Bodegas Campillo Rioja Gran Reserva 2017 is a classic, mature Rioja with an inviting balance of ripe fruit, oak spice and savoury depth. Its combination of extended French-oak ageing, generous structure and long finish makes it a distinguished choice for traditional Spanish cuisine and substantial dishes. As a Gran Reserva, it represents one of Rioja’s most characterful and age-worthy styles.

Tasting Notes
The wine shows an intense cherry-red colour with a characteristic chestnut-brown rim, reflecting its development in bottle and oak. On the nose, ripe fruit is harmoniously complemented by elegant notes of vanilla and liquorice. On the palate, it is full-bodied, rounded and generously textured, with a fleshy character and well-integrated maturity. The finish is long, impressive and lingering. It is approachable now, while its Gran Reserva structure and balanced maturation should allow it to develop further in bottle over the coming years when stored in suitable conditions.

Production
Produced in Rioja, Bodegas Campillo’s Gran Reserva 2017 is matured for at least 24 months in French oak barrels, allowing the ripe fruit profile to integrate with notes of vanilla, spice and liquorice. Further bottle ageing contributes to its polished texture and developed character. Specific vineyard and harvesting details are not provided.

Food & Serving
A versatile partner for roasted, grilled or braised meats, this Rioja also pairs well with rice dishes featuring mushrooms. Its mature structure complements rich fish such as tuna or cod, while its savoury depth works particularly well with medium-aged cheeses including Emmental and Gruyère. Serve lightly below room temperature, around 16–18°C. Decanting for 30–60 minutes can help open the wine and soften its mature aromas, although careful pouring is recommended if sediment is present.

Producer
Bodegas Campillo is a Rioja producer known for crafting traditionally styled wines that combine ripe regional fruit with extended oak and bottle ageing. The winery’s Gran Reserva wines reflect Rioja’s long-established culture of maturation, delivering depth, elegance and drinking pleasure rather than relying solely on youthful fruit. Further details about the winery’s history and specific achievements are not provided.
