This balanced red shows cherry, tobacco and earth notes on a firm frame. A pretty, spicy note emerges on the finish. Drink now through 2008. 10,000 cases made, 2,000 cases imported.??–TM??Region: Spain / Ribera del Duero Select to Add

Cool and collected, with a deeply fruity nose. The palate pours forth with red fruit, particularly cherry and raspberry, with some vanilla shadings to prop it all up. Fairly lush and chocolaty, with a fine transition from palate to finish.——M.S.(3/1/2004)—— 90
