BodegasFelixCallejo,MajuelosdeCallejo

<p>This is a large and robust wine with a complex and very aromatic nose. The flavours are concentrated with brambles, plum fruit, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Aged for 18 months in French oak barrels.</p><p>‘Majuelos’ translates to ‘Hawthorn’, a name given to the vineyard by the current winemaker’s grandparents. The poor gravel soils of this plot, mixed with the arid landscape places strain on the vines producing a low yield – this lead to a concentred and elegant wine with a fantastic structure. </p><p>Felix Callejo set up this winery in 1989 on the highest point of the Douro valley. The temperature shift between day and night which delivers a perfect balance of freshness and maturity. The vines are over 40 years, planted on loamy clay soils. </p><p>Origin: Ribera del Duero, Spain</p><p>Vintage: 2019</p><p>Grape variety: Tempranillo</p><p>Food pairing: Smoked meat dishes, barbecue, tapas</p><p>Bottle Size: 75clABV: 14.5%</p>
