Values from Spain are becoming less common than they were a few years back, so hail this nicely made Tempranillo that delivers tons of ripe fruit, purity and drinkability. It’s nothing difficult or complex; instead it is dark, chewy and pounds you with ripe black-fruit flavors. A mouthfilling, fully ripe wine with a modest upside but no faults.——M.S.(4/1/2009)—— 88
