"The 2007 Crianza spent 12 months in French oak. Aromas of wood smoke, pencil lead, Asian spices, violets, and blackberry are followed by a full-bodied wine with gobs of succulent fruit, a suave personality, and excellent balance. Give it 2-3 years of additional cellaring and drink it through 2019" 90/100 Parker
" Deep ruby. Ripe cherry and dark berry aromas are complemented by roasted coffee and pipe tobacco. Lush and supple on the palate, offering weighty blackberry and bitter cherry flavors and a jolt of smoked meat on the back. On the serious side, finishing with good grip and smoky persistence."89/100 Tanzer

"The 2004 Callejo Gran Reserva, from a great vintage in Ribera del Duero, is purple/black colored with a taciturn nose of Asian spices, lavender, incense, pencil lead, and blackberry. Dense and packed on the palate, it has superb volume and balance, power combined with elegance, and a 45-second finish. This outstanding effort merits 4-6 years of additional cellaring and will deliver peak drinking from 2014 to 2029."93+ Parker

A new wine from callejo. Aged in large old oak barrels.
"The 2006 Crianza was aged for 12 months in third year French oak. Cedar, Asian spices, incense, mineral, black cherry, and blackberry aromas compose the bouquet of this nicely proportioned, sweetly-fruited, layered offering" R. Parker.
