This wine is interesting and complex with tannin, intensity, and richness. Offering sweet fruit, medium body, fine purity, and a moderately long finish, it should drink well for 5-6 years. This wine represents a very good value. Importer: Classic Wines Inc., Pound Ridge, NY; tel. (914) 764-4290

This ripe, well-balanced wine offers vivid flavors of kirsch, blackberry, chocolate and smoke; the tannins are firm yet ripe, the finish long and subtle. Accessible now, but should be better with cellaring. Best after 1998. Tasted twice, with consistent notes. 6,000 cases made.??–TM??Region: Spain / Ribera del Duero Select to Add
