The 2008 Crianza has a light leathery nose with touches of mocha and dried herbs. It needs to develop more intensity. The palate is medium-bodied with light tannins on the entry. It has an attractive core of dusky red fruit and well-integrated cedar-tinged oak. The finish is balanced and focused although it would benefit from greater length. Drink now-2016. Carlos and Pilar Martinez-Bujanda Irribarria presently own Finca Antigua, the family having been involved in wine since 1889. But it was not until 2003 that Finca Antigua was founded. They farm high altitude loam and limestone soils. Importer: Winebow; www.winebow.com
