The 2004 T D’Anguix Reserva was sourced from older estate vineyards and spent 15 months in French and American oak. A glass-coating opaque purple color, it exhibits an enthralling bouquet of sandalwood, exotic spices, incense, potpourri, black cherry, and blackberry. Velvety and layered on the palate, it offers up superb volume, concentration, and length as well as 4-5 years of aging potential. Drink this exceptional value from 2014 to 2029. It admirably displays the greatness of the 2004 vintage in Ribera del Duero. Importer: New Age Imports, Verona, NJ; www.newageimports.net

The 2003 T D’Anguix Reserva spent 15 months in French and American oak. Purple in color, it gives up an aromatic array of smoke, pencil lead, espresso, black cherry, and blackberry. On the palate it is straightforward with a slightly baked character common to the very hot 2003 vintage. Even so, it is a solid wine that can be enjoyed over the next 8 years.
