Bodegas Orvalaiz 1999 Tempranillo (Navarra)

  • Best Buy
  1. $8
Red plums and candied fruit, with a touch of old wood flavor make this a pleasant wine. The nose brings chocolate and mint with focused deep red berry fruit. Drink soon and enjoy. —C.S.  — C.S.  (4/1/2002)

Bodegas Orvalaiz 1999 Viña Orvalaiz Red (Navarra)

  1. $9
A simple wine with aromas of blackberry jam and Bing cherries. Slightly nutty flavors, accompanied by a touch of dustiness, make this an enjoyable quaffing wine. —C.S.  — C.S.  (4/1/2002)

Bodegas Orvalaiz 1999 Merlot (Navarra)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $8
Downrated by some tasters for its “metallic, abrupt finish,” and praised by others for its “black cherry, milk chocolate, coffee and dried herb” flavors, which gave it away as Merlot despite being tasted blind. “Out of whack” or “varietally correct”?—that is the question.  — W.E.  (1/1/2004)

Bodegas Orvalaiz 1998 Cabernet Sauvignon (Navarra)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $8
Funky aromas of red cabbage, green herbs and sweet cherries lead into a lean, herbaceous wine that finishes on a metallic note. Tasters’ views were more consistent on this wine than on this winery’s Merlot.  — W.E.  (1/1/2004)
