Pedrosa 1995 Gran Reserva Red (Ribera del Duero)
- Cellar Selection
- $79
Still very youthful-tasting and structured, this wine—which incorporates 10% Cabernet Sauvignon in the blend—also boasts admirable quantities of black cherry and blackberry fruit. Hints of smoke and grilled meat add a dose of complexity. Drink now with hearty foods or age up to 10 years.

Pedrosa 2004 Gran Reserva Red (Ribera del Duero)
- Online Exclusive
Earthy and crusty at first, with smoked meat, black fruit and dryness to the nose. The palate is well formed and proper, with dry raspberry and mild chocolate flavors. Finishes peppery and solid, with the slightest herbal note. Very nice wine to drink now through 2014.

Pedrosa 1998 Crianza Tempranillo (Ribera del Duero)
- $28
In a vintage that favored structure over opulence, Pedrosa’s crianza spent 18 months in barrel, softening some of the roughness. It ends up smelling quite oaky, with toast, vanilla and sweet cinnamon-sugar elements over black-cherry and blackberry fruit. The tannins are plentiful and the acids firm, making this another ’98 that could use more aging.

Pedrosa 1997 Reserva Red (Ribera del Duero)
- $45
The sweet toast and firm structure can’t hide fruit that seems a little less than fully ripe. Does have attractive smoke and spice elements, but also green tannins.

Pedrosa 2006 La Navilla Red (Ribera del Duero)
- Online Exclusive
An assault of oak, vanilla and cigar box is the opening salvo, while wave two and three bring raisiny aromas and finally lemon peel. Chunky and tough in the mouth, with vanilla and resin running ahead of acidic raspberry fruit. Finishes with a mix of sauciness, tang, wood notes and candy.

Pedrosa 2006 Reserva Red (Ribera del Duero)
- Online Exclusive
Rooty, tough aromas are brambly, while the palate is narrow in feel, drying and tastes of herbal raspberry and cherry. Quite snappy and a little sharp, with a quick finish of red fruit, tomato and zest. Could improve with aging, but at this point the wine, while solid, seems lacking in stuffing.

Pedrosa 2007 Crianza Red (Ribera del Duero)
- Online Exclusive
By no means is this the best wine from Pedrosa; it has decent red berry aromas, but what you really get is minty, forward oak. The palate has an acidic tang to it that suggests medium ripeness, while flavors of cherry tomatoes, herbs, vanilla and mint take you only so far. More barrel than substance here.
