The 2009 Cueto Tendencia, a blend of 80% Tempranillo and 20% Garnacha, spent 5 months in French and American oak. It is a bit richer than the Tinto with liqueur-like notes and a bit of structure. Savory, balanced, and moderately lengthy, it is also an excellent value that will deliver pleasure through 2017. Importer: F.L. Navarro, The Artisan Collection, Brooklyn, NY; Tel. (718) 596-0722

The 2008 Tendencia is the same blend as the Tinto but spent 3 months in French and American casks. Dark ruby-colored, it is a nicely perfumed wine with notes of incense, cinnamon, lavender, and black cherry. Friendly and laid-back on the palate, it has more than ample succulent fruit, good volume and depth, and excellent balance. Drink it over the next 4-5 years.
