Alzania 2002 Crianza Red (Navarra)
- $30
Initially it’s like a pungent strip of fresh-cut oak laid on a bed of leather, but airing reveals black cherry and blueberry flavors and a couple layers of warmth and style. Very nice weight and balance. A little oaky on the nose, but overall it’s more than commendable. Imported by Vinamericas Selections.

Alzania 2002 Selección Privada Red (Navarra)
- $70
Potent to start, with heavy oak notes that conjure memories of pickle barrel and malt vinegar. Airing opens it up, and below there’s black cherry, cassis and a lot of sticky, hard tannins. Patience and hearty food are needed, but it has its qualities. Suavity, however, is not among them. Imported by Vinamericas Selections.

Alzania 2004 Finca la Moneda Red (Navarra)
- Online Exclusive
- $40
Opens with a blast of cola and minty grass, and then comes a raisiny wave and mossy herbal notes that are typical of Navarran Merlot, which makes up 60% of this three-grape blend. Gritty in the mouth, with black cherry, licorice, herbs, raisin and lasting sweetness on the finish.
