  • 🎨 ColourA deep, dark, almost mystical purple colour that seems to capture stories from the high altitudes of Ribera del Duero.
  • 👃 AromaComplex bouquet with hints of ripe, dark fruit, combined with delicate vanilla, coffee notes and a hint of mineral freshness.
  • 👅 TasteOn the palate, majestically intense flavours of black cherries and plums unfold, complemented by finely woven tannins and a lively acid structure that leads to a long-lasting finish.
  • 🎭 CharacterA wine of sublime elegance and impressive complexity - an expression of pure craftsmanship, characterised by the heart and soul of the Callejo family.
  • 🍽️ Food recommendationPerfect accompaniment to strong dishes such as braised beef, roast game or even dark chocolate to fully discover its many facets.

Bodegas Felix Callejo is a family winery in Sotillo de la Ribera, which was founded in 1989 by the parents' generation and is now run by Beatriz, Noelia, José Félix and Cristina Callejo. José Félix gained his experience at Pétrus in Bordeaux and at Torres in Chile, Noelia at Araujo in Napa Valley and at Cobos in Mendoza. In 2000, the family officially converted the vineyard to organic viticulture. A total of 27 plots on almost 55 hectares are planted with Tinto Fino as well as smaller quantities of Garnacha, Albillo Mayor and Merlot. The vineyards are located at an altitude of 830 to 930 metres on the northern edge of the Duero river basin and include gravel soils from old river beds, sandy soils, clay soils and limestone soils. José Félix Collejo has been named Winemaker of the Year 2021 by Master of Wine Tim Atkin in his report on Ribera del Duero.
