Bodega Burdigala Campo Alegre – Toro – Red – 2012:
The Bold Heart of Toro: Bodega Burdigala Campo Alegre
Hailing from the high-altitude vineyards of Castilla y León, the Campo Alegre Toro Red from Bodega Burdigala is a masterful expression of the Tinta de Toro grape. This wine is the ‘second label’ from the acclaimed Campo Eliseo project, spearheaded by winemaking legends Michel Rolland and François Lurton, and it delivers a powerful, concentrated profile that is both robust and refined.
Tasting Profile
- Color: Deep, opaque garnet-red with a youthful rim.
- Nose: Explosive and complex, featuring concentrated dark fruit (black cherry, blackberry jam, plum) layered with rich secondary notes of sweet spice, tobacco, vanilla, and a hint of dark chocolate from its French oak aging.
- Palate: Full-bodied and muscular, with a fleshy mouthfeel. The tannins are substantial but polished, ensuring a long, savory finish. It balances its inherent power with a surprising underlying acidity, making it a powerful yet balanced Spanish powerhouse.
Pairing & Serving Suggestions
This is a wine built for the grill and the dinner table. Decant for an hour to maximize aromatic intensity and serve at 62-65°F (16-18°C). A true steak wine!
