Winemaker Notes“For the elaboration of a "Great" a lot of patience is required. We select those loose soils, where sands predominate, at altitudes that allow maintaining a balanced, elegant Tinto Fino, that lasts and evolves in this long aging of 2 years in French oak and more than 3 years in bottle. Always faithful to our style of preserving the essence that we find in the vineyard, it is in this “gran" where we see the potential of our vineyards in Sotillo and how time so finely shapes the Tinto Fino.” Tasting Notes Its color is ruby cherry. Notes on the nose of ripe fruit, minerals, herbs, eucalyptus, white pepper, cocoa and hints of scrubland. The taste is fresh with sensations of red fruit, balsamic, cocoa berry, laurel and tannin still scarred. The Technical Part Our vineyard is located in the village of Sotillo de la Ribera, on the northern edge of the Duero River Valley. We have 60 ha. divided into 25 plots distributed in a profile that goes from 830 m. in the lower parts up to 930 m. in the highest. This situation within Ribera del Duero, offers us soils of different geological origin.

Bodegas Felix Callejo is a family winery founded in 1989 by Félix Callejo. It's the second generation, Cristina, José Félix, Beatriz and Noelia Callejo who continue this exciting legacy. The experiences in other wineries of both José Félix (Petrus - France, 1999; Torres - Chile, 2000) and Noelia (Araujo - Napa, 2007 and 2010; Cobos - Mendoza, 2008) provided the basis for further developing a philosophy dump on the soil and to be Vignerons. In the year 2000, they began to work in an ecological way in their vineyards, a clean, respectful viticulture, full of life for the soils and therefore for their wines. This step, made them and makes them return to the past to be able to look to the future. Observe their surroundings, the landscape that surrounds them, the culture that they have acquired thanks to their ancestors always linked to the world of wine and the authenticity of the land.
