The 2009 Seleccion was sourced from 40-year-old Tempranillo vines and aged for 16 months in new French barriques. It offers up a captivating perfume of wood smoke, Asian spices, incense, lavender, and a hint of balsamic. In the glass it opens to reveal layered, spicy black cherry and blackberry flavors in a modern expression of Ribera del Duero. Rich, concentrated, and lengthy, it will evolve for 2-3 years and drink well through 2024. Importer: Winebow, New York, NY; www.winebow.com

The purple-colored 2006 Seleccion has an aromatic array of toasty new oak, mineral, lavender, incense, and black cherry. On the palate it has a plush texture, the best balance of these three wines, and plenty of ripe fruit. It has several years of aging potential and will be at its best from 2011 to 2021. The Protos wines are 100% Tinta del Pais (Tempranillo). Importer: RV Distributors, Jersey City, NJ; tel. (973) 841- 0216
