WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Campillo Reserva Colección 2018 is produced from 100% Tempranillo grapes. Following fermentation in tanks, the wine undergoes an extended maceration period of 12-14 days to enhance color and tannin extraction. It is then aged for a minimum of 22 months in American and French oak barrels, followed by bottle aging. This meticulous process is designed to develop the wine's character and complexity.
