Rosado - Campo Viejo

The rosé wine Rosado - Campo Viejo sparkles in the glass with a brilliant salmon-pink hue, interwoven with subtly copper-colored reflections. As soon as it is swirled, delicate aromas of fresh raspberries, juicy strawberries and ripe cherries rise from the glass. Gentle violet notes and a hint of rose petals lend the nose floral elegance, accompanied by a touch of white peach and a citrusy undertone.

On the palate, the wine is wonderfully juicy and clearly structured. The opening is fruit-driven, with crisp red berries, a touch of blood orange and a hint of pomegranate. The acidity is fresh and lively, carrying the fruit with plenty of energy and creating an inviting flow. The body is light to medium in weight, with silky tannins providing grip and structure in the background. The finish remains fruity, with notes of strawberry yogurt, pink grapefruit and a hint of herbal spice.

The style of this rosé represents pure drinking pleasure and Mediterranean lightness. The Garnacha grape from Rioja reveals all its charm here, with pronounced fruit and a clear profile. Maturation in stainless steel preserves the freshness, emphasizes the varietal character and gives the wine a straightforward, modern profile. At the same time, the taster senses the signature of the Old World in its elegance, balance and delicate interplay of acidity.

The origin in the renowned Rioja region clearly shapes the character of this rosé. The combination of sun-drenched vineyards, cool nights and limestone-rich soils produces grapes with intense aromas and a fine structure.

Production of Rosado - Campo Viejo

The grapes for Rosado - Campo Viejo come from selected sites in Rioja, one of Spain’s most important wine regions. The climate combines fascinating Atlantic and Mediterranean influences. Warm days and cooler nights encourage the Garnacha grapes to ripen slowly and evenly. These conditions produce intense aromas, lively freshness and precise structure.

The vineyard soils range from calcareous clay soils to gravelly sites. Limestone lends the wine finesse and tension, while the stonier parcels provide depth and expression. In this environment, the vines produce low yields but highly concentrated grapes with vibrant color and clear fruit.

The harvest is carried out selectively, ensuring that only perfectly ripe grapes are processed. The berries are transported promptly to the winery, where careful processing begins. First, the grapes undergo a short period of skin contact, during which color and some of the aromas from the grape skins pass into the must. This phase requires great precision so that the rosé retains its radiant color and elegant structure.

Next, the winemaker draws off the must and begins temperature-controlled fermentation in stainless steel tanks. Cool fermentation preserves the delicate fruit and floral aromas and creates a clear, defined style. Oak is deliberately avoided so that the Garnacha’s pure, fresh fruit remains the focus.

After fermentation, the wine rests on its fine lees for a period of time. This contact with the lees gives the rosé a creamy nuance, greater texture and depth without compromising its freshness. The winemaker’s style is reflected in a perfect balance of fruit, clarity and drinking pleasure. Every step in the cellar is aimed at bringing a rosé with Mediterranean character, brilliant color and precise structure into the bottle.

The classic bottle design emphasizes the values of Campo Viejo: timeless elegance, clean lines and an appearance that is equally convincing on the terrace or at a festively set table. The practical screw cap reliably preserves the freshness and allows for effortless opening, whether on the go or at a picnic.
