Teofilo Reyes 1996 Reserva Tempranillo (Ribera del Duero)

Price $150

Dark cherry aromas and beautifully integrated oak with attractive mint-menthol notes grace the complex nose.

Teofilo Reyes 1999 Crianza Red (Ribera del Duero)

Editors' Choice

Price $26

Despite this wine’s heavy overlay of oak (a blend of American and French), the vintage’s bright fruit shines through with stunning clarity and purity. Cinnamon and toast accent the anise-tinged cherries—some black, some red. Finishes with black tea and vanilla notes. Don’t miss this wine if you are oak tolerant. Editors’ Choice. — J.C. (11/1/2001)

Teofilo Reyes 1998 Tempranillo (Ribera del Duero)

Price $36

Solid fruit, a strong scent of violets, and a nutty, gamy element mark the nose of this solid red. Flavorful, with sour cherry, red berry and licorice elements on the palate, and an even finish with fine tannins. This is a smooth and sophisticated wine that still has good grip, from a master winemaker. (Available fall 2000.) — M.M. (8/1/2000)
