Remírez de Ganuza 2005 Old Vines Unfiltered Red (Rioja)
- Editors' Choice
- $82
Concentrated to the hilt, with molten black fruit, coconut and mint aromas. The palate is driven, tannic, pure and features dynamite flavors of black fruit, bitter chocolate and spice cake. So beautiful and big, but also showing elegance and restraint. Drinkable now but will age well for another seven years or more.

Remírez de Ganuza 2001 Reserva Red (Rioja)
- Editors' Choice
- $74
Since coming into existence in 1988, this winery has made rich, modern reds that represent the best of what new-age Rioja is about. And the 2001 could be the best yet, as it offers aromas of rose petals, fresh lemon, cola, soy, coffee, leather and more. Definitely a powerhouse, with huge fruit from front to back. Lively in terms of tannins, with the expected…

Remírez de Ganuza 2004 Old Vines Unfiltered Red (Rioja)
- Cellar Selection

Nice, brawny and integrated, with sexy aromas of wild berry, dark plum, leather and earth. The palate has the right weight and tannic grab, while the flavors of black fruit, fine herbs, cola and coffee are measured yet generous. Finishes with driving chocolate and vanilla flavors. Drink now through 2016.

Remírez de Ganuza 1998 Reserva Red (Rioja)
- Cellar Selection
- $65
Dark in color, with dynamite bacon, boysenberry and lavender aromas. Quite a saturated wine, with smoke and earth surrounding cola and dried fruit. This is killer Rioja, one with all the trimmings. There’s racy spice, pencil lead and push. Sensationally snazzy and stylish.

Remírez de Ganuza 2005 Fincas de Ganuza Reserva Tempranillo (Rioja)
- Online Exclusive
- $49
Tight, pure and just right from start to finish. The nose offers bold berry, roasted plum, vanilla and spice aromas along with exceptional clarity, and the palate is snappy and pure but also dark and loaded with coffee, chocolate, mocha and fine raspberry and cherry flavors. Slightly oaky but smooth late, and composed. Drink now through 2014.

Remírez de Ganuza 2003 Reserva Tempranillo (Rioja)
- $77
Thick, brooding and aromatically mature, this delivers heft, grab and balance. It has developed black-fruit flavors followed by a cushioned, soft finish. Drink now and over the next several years as the 2001 gets better and the promising but not yet released 2004 begins to settle. Imported by Tempranillo, Inc.

Remírez de Ganuza 2006 Trasnocho Red (Rioja)
- $143
Here’s yet another excellent wine from this modern-leaning Riojano producer. The nose is full of spice, tobacco and deep berry aromas. Feels quasi-jammy and very rich, with thickness and mild tannins. Tastes baked, like a mix of prune, spicecake and chocolate. Warm and figgy on the finish, and ready to drink now.

Remírez de Ganuza 2006 Tempranillo (Rioja)
- Online Exclusive
- $87
Remírez de Ganuza has a track record of excellence, and this is yet another dense, deep, sultry Rioja that has become customary. Reflecting the warm ’06 vintage, the wine is chunky in the mouth, with thick blackberry, boysenberry, chocolate and almond candy flavors. It’s toasty and dark on the finish, but also a touch soft, much like chocolate cake. Drink now…
