2005 Vinos Valtuille Mencia Pago de Valdoneje Vinas Viejas Bierzo
($11) Medium red. Primary red and dark berry aromas are accented by gentle black pepper and espresso. Light red berry flavors are complemented by sweeter vanilla but could use more oomph. There's good clarity here and the finish is fresh. (Antalva Imports, Los Angeles, CA)
