Valdrinal 2002 Crianza Tinto del Pais (Ribera del Duero)
- $17
Robust and dark, with plum and berry aromas that also carry hints of citrus and mineral. Overall this is a balanced specimen; the palate is round and full of bright plum and berry while the feel is moderately deep, somewhat tannic, and medium in acidity. Drink now.

Valdrinal 2004 6 Tinto del Pais (Ribera del Duero)
- $14
Light in terms of fruit potency, but heavy on the spicy oak. This is your typical dry, lean, somewhat shallow Tempranillo with spice and vanilla as the dominant forces. Some red cherry is evident in the mix.

Valdrinal 2005 Valdrinal de Santamaria Verdejo (Rueda)
- Online Exclusive
- $11
Quite chunky, with an aromatic personality defined by canned peaches and very ripe melon. The palate, however, offers nothing but dried, stripped-down citrus, while the finish is clean but short as a whistle blast. Acceptable but dull.

Valdrinal 2002 Roble Tempranillo (Ribera del Duero)
- $20
Smells a lot like a pot of baked beans, meaning it’s not that fresh and probably too earthy for most tastes. The palate offers mostly cherry tomato and green herbs on top of dried cherry, while the finish, which has a good feel to it, tastes too much like tomato.
