Unfortunately, I found the oak too intrusive in the 2017 Crianza, a blend of 60% Garnacha, 25% Cari?ena and 15% Merlot. It has notes of vanilla, coconut, cinnamon and other sweet spices. It's ripe and has some sugar in the finish. Not my cup of tea. 20,000 bottles.

The 2011 Crianza is a blend of Syrah, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon aged for nine months in a mixture of French and American oak barrels. 12,000 bottles produced.

The 2006 Crianza is a blend of 40% Tempranillo, 30% Cabernet Sauvignon, with the balance Merlot and Syrah aged for 9 months in French and American oak. Medium ruby in color, it displays an alluring bouquet of Asian spices, violets, cassis, and black currant. On the palate it has good volume, a bit of structure, savory flavors, and a fruit-filled finish. Drink it from 2011 to 2018. Importer: Steven Berardi Selections, Denver, CO; tel. (303) 838-1963

The 2005 Crianza is a blend of 40% Tempranillo, 30% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot, and 10% Syrah aged for nine months in French and American oak. It offers up an attractive nose of cedar, mineral, tobacco, cassis, blueberry, and blackberry leading to a smooth, easy-going, spicy wine with savory flavors, good balance, and a seamless finish. Drink this pleasure-bent wine over the next five years. Santiago Giracias founded Solar de Urbezo in 1995 and he currently owns 100 hectares of high altitude vineyards in Carinena.
