Campo Viejo 2004 Gran Reserva (Rioja)

Country: Spain / Northern Spain
Variety: Tempranillo Blend
Winery: Campo Viejo / Gran Reserva

Leathery, earthy aromas don’t seem entirely fresh, but they are solid and don’t waiver. Full bodied, with coarse tannins and roasted red-berry, tomato and herb flavors. It’s tight, chunky and long on the finish, with tannic grab, and more tomato and herb characteristics.
