Presentations: a matter of image. Bodegas Campo Burgo has put an
exquisite care in the renewal and constant updating of
the image of its wines. Apart from the traditional
presentation in Bordeaux bottles for red and Rhin type
bottles for white and ros, some of which dressed
with mesh, they now offer a wide range of sizes, amongst
which the Magnum botlle (1,5 litres) and the traditional
small 3/8 bottles for young red, white and ros and
Crianza '94 are worth mentioning. |
| "A new Rioja style for today's
people" Bodegas Campo Burgoïs success on the
international market implicates a recognition of the
quality policy and image renewal that the bodega has been
developping during the last years. Not satisfied with
following the traditional Rioja production and growing
methods, this centenary bodega has managed to stamp its
wines with a modern character, perfectly adapted to
curent tastes. |

Red "Tempranillo" '96 Within the wide range of Campo Burgo products, this young red wine deserves to stand out because of its uniqueness. Exclusively produced with the Tempranillo variety, it has remained during five years in new red oak barrels, achieving a delicate and interesting balance between the fruitiness of a young wine and the tannic contributions of the wood. Its colour is cherry red with violet iridiscences of medium high coating. The aroma recollects Tempranilloïs typical fruitiness and vanilla, apported by by the good quality wood in which it has been matured. A wine which after a short bottling period turns out to be harmonious and perfect. Crianza '94 |
