Description

The 2007 Calvario displays a Northern Rhone-like nose with white pepper lacing the fresh black fruit, which shows more femininity than the 2006. The palate is medium-bodied with supple, lithe tannins and great purity, while the creamy finish is gentle and caressing. This is very seductive, but has yet to show any secondary characteristics. Hold this back for couple of years and you will be repaid. - WA

The Winery

Founded in 1986 by Miguel ?ngel de Gregorio in the hillside town of Briones, Finca Allende is located in an ancient 16th century manor, set in a medieval town square within the heart of Rioja Alta. Roughly translated as further, Allende's philosophy is to go further towards creating the perfect Rioja. The majority of vines are plowed with mules, grapes are hand-harvested, triple-selected and manually punched-down, before undergoing extensive underground aging in both barrel and bottle. Known for producing round wines with great body and structure, each bottle is hand-crafted by and contains the signature of Miguel ?ngel de Gregorio. Considered to be Spain's first terroirist, Miguel Angel's sincere dedication to natural farming and preserving the integrity of Rioja Alta, are why he is one of the region's most celebrated winemakers and a mastermind when it comes to making world class estate-grown wines.
