A straightforward, solid effort from Ribera del Duero, the wine reveals a deep, saturated plum/ruby color, abundant quantities of peppery, spicy, chunky fruit, and medium body. The 1999 Torremilanos Crianza reveals additional depth and tannin, and should age for 2-3 years. It is not profound, but it is realistically priced, especially from Ribera del Duero.
