Calvario Finca Allende 2004 is a single-vineyard Rioja red wine, primarily made from Tempranillo, with minor contributions from Graciano and Garnacha. Sourced from the El Calvario plot near Briones, this vineyard features poor, gravelly soils at high altitude. The 2004 vintage in Rioja was characterised by robust concentration and structure, ideal for producing wines with longevity. Aged for 18 months in new French oak, this wine presents a complex array of aromas, including dark fruit, balsamic notes and hints of spice, with a firm tannin structure designed for extended cellaring.
