Located around 110 miles southeast of Madrid, Bodega Campos Reales is situated in La Mancha region, the largest wine producing region in Spain and the world. There are a few things that are quite
interesting about this wine. First, this is another well made “new-world” wine, imported by Jorge Ordonez, that is being sold in the Seattle area for about $7.00. Secondly is the age of this wine. This new vintage came available in March, 2009, only 5 months after the grapes were picked off the vine. Wow, how youthful can you get… no oak aging here! This easy drinking wine has a deep violet color and a nose of fresh berries and cherries. On the palate, ripe blackberries, strawberries and pomegranate comingle on a zesty medium bodied backbone. The tannins are quite submerged and the fresh acidity makes this wine a good pair for any casual dinner. This is not a complex wine; however, it delivers some delicious vitality and freshness that is quite enjoyable.. We bought this nice “value wine” from Spain at QFC, in Bellevue, for about $7.00
