Día Naciente 2004 Shiraz-Tempranillo (Castilla La Mancha)

Best Buy

Price $10

This is a good table wine with sweet, woodsy aromas of sandalwood, clove, cinnamon and earth. The palate turns a bit to the tangy, sharp side. But in a world with so many overripe heavyweights, this edgy, almost racy blend has the right stuff. — M.S. (12/15/2006)

Día Naciente 2004 Shiraz (Castilla La Mancha)

Price $10

Round and sweet up front, with aromas of candied berries. More alert and red-fruit dominated on the palate, with snappy acidity keeping it well propped up. Finishes with bright acidity and modest tannins. Straight-ahead red wine with crispness. — M.S. (12/15/2006)

Día Naciente 2004 Tempranillo (Castilla La Mancha)

Price $10

Light raspberry and strawberry aromas lead into snappy berry flavors. The feel is almost astringent; call it tangy and tight. Juicy but also rubbery. Shows both positives and negatives. — M.S. (12/15/2006)

Día Naciente 2000 Tempranillo (La Mancha)

Online Exclusive

Price $10

Murky and stewy, and already old for a La Mancha red. Plum and earth flavors are baked, while there is but a modicum of spice and nuance. — M.S. (6/1/2005)
