Bodegas Ondarre 2004 Mayor de Ondarre Reserva Red (Rioja)
- Online Exclusive
- $45
A little tight on the nose, with earthy characteristics as well as raspberry and plum aromas. The palate is juicy and offers good flow, while the flavors of raspberry and plum are classic and touched up by vanilla, spice, dill and toastiness. Long on the finish, with tobacco, spice and cocoa. Drink now through 2012.

Bodegas Ondarre 2007 Graciano (Rioja)
- Online Exclusive
- $18
Quite impressive and eyebrow raising for Graciano. The nose is smoky and dry, with raspberry and bacon. In the mouth, acidity is controlled and thus there’s no sourness to the plum, tomato, spice and vanilla flavors. Finishes with verve and elegance; a nice potential partner for just about any food. Drink now through 2015.

Bodegas Ondarre 2004 Reserva Red (Rioja)
- Online Exclusive
- $18
Smooth on the nose, with a pinch of rubber, earth, smoked beef and plum/prune. The palate offers structure, solid acidity, zestiness and bright flavors of cherry and raspberry. Finishes crisp and tight, with lingering vanilla. A nice wine for tapas and other meat-based dishes.

Bodegas Ondarre 2007 Ursa Maior Crianza Red (Rioja)
- Best Buy
- Online Exclusive
- $10
Aromas of tobacco, mild raisin, dry oak and berries are simple and pleasant, while the palate is light in weight, a touch dilute but very fresh and easy, with cherry, plum and even some citrus for flavor. Light and transparent on the finish, with barely any excess.

Bodegas Ondarre 2009 Ursa Maior Red (Rioja)
- Best Buy
- Online Exclusive
- $10
A simple and snappy style of Rioja with just enough weight and ripeness along with light berry aromas. The palate is perky and fresh, with young, medicinal, semisharp flavors of cherry and plum. More than competent, with verve and acidic scour.

Bodegas Ondarre NV Selección Millennium Brut Macabeo (Cava)
- $15
This wine smells fermented, like Tequila. Linear, acidic and lemony on the palate, it has tart apple and pineapple flavors. A citrus note carries the finish to a modest end point. Although it’s good enough, it’s neither inspired nor inspiring. Tasted twice.
