The 1995 Vega Sindoa Tempranillo is a terrific wine for the price. The dark ruby/purple color and sweet, peppery, spicy, black-cherry-scented nose are again reminiscent of a top-notch French Cotes du Rhone. The attack exhibits sweet, ripe fruit, surprising layers of flavor, and a smooth, velvety, heady finish. This is a gutsy, rich, well-balanced, mouthfilling wine for drinking over the next 3-4 years. Bodegas Nekeas is one of the most progressive, modern wineries in northern Navarra. They are doing considerable experimentation in one of the cooler micro-climates of this area. If you haven't already figured it out, I'll say it again - these wines are exceptional bargains. Importer: Fine Estates From Spain, 75 Fox Meadow Lane, Dedham, MA 02026; tel.
