What delicious wines come from the north of Spain. Take, for example, the Rioja of Campo Viejo. It is made from the ancient Spanish tempranillo grape. Campo Viejo's head winemaker Elena Adell specializes in tempranillo. She knows exactly how that grape develops in cooler or warmer areas. For Campo Viejo she uses grapes from 3 climate zones within the Rioja: the Rioja Alta, Alavesa and Baja. This is how she creates wines with a perfect balance. The great thing about balanced wines is that they taste at any time. Whether you drink them as a glass on their own or whether you eat them. Always good.
