The 1999 Reserva is made in the more traditional Rioja style. Light to medium ruby-colored, it exhibits aromas of earth, American oak, and black cherry. Given its color, the wine has surprising grip and length. Drink it now through 2015.Vina Herminia’s 2006 Tempranillo and 2003 Crianza are very good values noted in the Best Buy chart at the end of this report.Importer: Christopher Cannan, Europvin, www.europvin.com
