Arroyo 2000 Joven Tempranillo (Ribera del Duero)
- Best Buy
- $11
This jóven sees only stainless steel prior to bottling, so you can taste all the juicy Tempranillo fruit without any of the cluttering oak. Complex, briary spice notes on the finish accent the bright cherry and red berry flavors. It’s full without being jammy or heavy, so you can pair it with burgers or sip it on its own.

Arroyo 2007 Reserva Tempranillo (Ribera del Duero)
- $16
Earthy dark-berry aromas come with moderate spice. It feels fresh and shows solid grip on the palate, along with notes of plum, blackberry, vanilla, dill and tobacco. Short and dry on the finish, it has a minty accent.

Arroyo 2008 Crianza Tempranillo (Ribera del Duero)
- Best Buy
- Online Exclusive
- $10
For an inexpensive wine, this offers plenty of wood spice, vanilla, char and toast on the nose. The palate smacks hard with drawing tannins, while flavors of medicinal plum and raspberry carry a charred aftertaste. Good as a whole, with oak dominating the finish.

Arroyo 1995 Reserva Red (Ribera del Duero)
- $18
The smoky, floral aromas are pretty, but the wine shows a bit of age on the palate, where the cherry fruit seems a bit faded and light. Mature; drink now.

Arroyo 2006 Joven Tempranillo (Ribera del Duero)
- $11
Big and sweet, with ripe berry aromas, candy and leather on the nose. This wine is a classic fruity joven; it’s bulky and easygoing, with black cherry, raspberry and chocolate. If you aren’t looking for miracles, this is fine within the young Ribera del Duero category.

Arroyo 1998 Crianza Red (Ribera del Duero)
- $32
Smoky, toasty oak dominates the aromas and flavors of this wine and it doesn’t appear to have the stuffing to ever absorb all of the wood elements. That said, it is tasty oak.
