Alvides 2002 Crianza Tempranillo (Ribera del Duero)

  1. $27
Maybe more savory and sautéed than overtly fresh and fruity, but still there’s enough ripeness, purity and acidity to keep this wine in line. That said, the wine runs more heavy and less vibrant than some. Which only means that it’s incredibly easy to drink now and doesn’t require further aging.  — M.S.  (6/1/2007)

Alvides 2004 Vendima Seleccionada Tempranillo (Ribera del Duero)

  1. $15
Ripe, saturated and raring to go, this tyke takes no prisoners as it pumps forward with berry aromas and then robust flavors of black cherry and bitter chocolate. There’s little to no finesse on this fruit ball, but it will go with any grilled meat.  — M.S.  (6/1/2007)
