Majuelos de Espana's Rioja offering is the 2009 Solar de Castro Vendimia Seleccionada, a blend of 80% Tempranillo and 20% Garnacha sourced from biodynamically farmed vineyards, all over 30 years of age. It was fermented with native yeasts, went through malolactic in barrel, and was aged for 12 months in new French oak. It offers up an enticing nose of balsam wood, leather, Asian spices, lavender, and black cherry. In the glass it is smooth-textured, spicy, incipiently complex, and sweetly-fruited. With outstanding volume, impeccable balance, and a lengthy, pure finish, this outstanding effort will continue to evolve for another 2-3 years and deliver prime drinking from 2013 to 2024. Score - 91. (Jay Miller, erobertparker.com, June 2011)
