Description
Félix Callejo has a cherry red color with garnet hues in the edge. The wine has intense aromas of ripe fruit, blueberries in combination with herbs such as rosemary, cloves, balsamic, hints of ink and oak. On the palate, the wine is powerful and juicy, ripe fruit in combination with the sensations that come from the scent. The finish is long with chocolate and ripe tannins at the end. A wine with great elegance and finesse.
Vintage 2016 starts with a very rainy winter. It registers 250 mm of well-distributed rain in January, February and March. April and May also had abundant rainfall, giving the vineyards a good water reserve. The summer months were dry and hot as usual, but winter and spring rainfall slowed the vineyard cycle. Although the heat of August and September did manage to push the harvest, which was picked in the first two weeks of October, forward a bit. The grapes were well ripe with an abundant quantity and excellent quality due to the thinning of the bunches in the summer and the absence of rain during the harvest.
Aging: 18 months in oak barrels.
