"The 2005 Vendimia Seleccionada is 100% Tempranillo (as are all of these wines) aged for 12 months in oak. Earthy mineral, mocha, violets, and assorted black fruits inform the nose of this concentrated, full-flavored, surprisingly elegant offering. Well-balanced and lengthy . . . . It is an excellent value."

Spain has the largest area under vine of any country and a deep tradition of oak-aged reds. Tempranillo-based wines from Rioja and Ribera del Duero, alongside Priorat's Garnacha and Carinena, anchor its fine-wine reputation.
Spain's noble red grape, producing structured, savory wines of red fruit and leather that respond beautifully to oak aging in Rioja and Ribera del Duero.
