Bodega Otto Bestué 2008 Finca Rableros Tempranillo-Cabernet Sauvignon (Somontano)
- Online Exclusive
- $15
Gets going with earthy, mildly baked aromas of cherry and chocolate-covered raisin. It’s fresh and jumpy in the mouth, with berry, plum, chocolate and an herbal undercurrent. Feels good throughout, with some heat and herbal character to the finish.

Bodega Otto Bestué 2007 Bestué de Otto Bestué Finca Santa Sabina Cabernet Sauvignon-Tempranillo (Somontano)
- Online Exclusive
- $20
Aromas of sawdust announce oak, but otherwise the nose is earthy and fairly attractive, with plum and rooty notes. Round, ripe, tannic and solid in the mouth, with broad flavors of black cherry, rubber and oak. Shows good grip on a slightly oaky, medicinal finish. Hold another nine months to let the oak settle.

Bodega Otto Bestué 2008 Finca Santa Sabina Cabernet Sauvignon-Tempranillo (Somontano)
- Online Exclusive
- $19
A bit warm, leathery and cheesy at first, but better as it settles. Shows crisp acidity and cut, which livens up earthy cherry and plum flavors and balances out any weight and resiny oak you might find. Hints at class by delivering freshness and nothing too heavy.

Bodega Otto Bestué 2007 Bestué de Otto Bestué Finca Rableros Tempranillo-Cabernet Sauvignon (Somontano)
- Online Exclusive
- $17
Mildly horsey on the nose, with alfalfa, reedy fruit and grilled beef aromas. The palate is wet and lean, with good acidity and a dose of heat, while the flavors of cherry tilt toward medicinal and weedy without fully going there. Basic Tempranillo-Cab Sauvignon with a green streak.
