Exuberant aromas of coffee and ripe plum give way to surprising finesse on the palate in this balanced, concentrated wine. It's youthful and long, with clean fruit and firm tannins that don't get in the way of the pleasure. Drink now through 1998. 10,000 cases made.??–TM??Region: Spain / Ribera del Duero Select to Add

The 1991 Mesoneros de Castilla Crianza exhibits an opaque ruby/purple color, and a tight but promising nose of black fruits, damp earth, and spices. Muscular and concentrated, with moderate tannin, and a full-bodied, highly-extracted, backward, pure, rich style, this bodegas' cellars are among the coldest of Spain, thus the unevolved state of this wine. It is an impressive, potentially 20-year wine that can be purchased for a song. Although accessible, it will not reach full maturity for another 2-3 years.This wine is made from an old clone of the Tempranillo grape, called Tinta del Pais. It is an impressive wine from an up and coming star of this undiscovered viticultural region.Importer: Fine Estates From Spain, Jorge Ordonez, West Roxbury, MA; tel. (617) 327-1613

The 1990 Mesoneros de Castilla Crianza is an unevolved, dark ruby/purple-colored wine with black-cherry and cassis fruit, medium to full body, moderate tannin, and a fresh, lively, youthful, tart finish. It requires another 1-2 years of cellaring and should last for a decade or more. Importer: Jorge Ordonez 39 Constance Road, West Roxbury, MA 02132; telephone (617) 327-1613; telefax (617) 323-0455.
