The 2005 Reserva is composed of Tempranillo, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Graciano aged for 14 months in new French oak. It gives up a nose of wood smoke, damp earth, floral notes, black cherry, and blackberry. This leads to a structured, slightly rustic wine that has good flavors, excellent grip, and a lengthy finish. Give it 2-3 years of additional bottle age and drink it from 2013 to 2020. The latest collection from Bodegas Marco Real is uniformly excellent. Importer: Steve Miles Selections, Denver, CO; tel.
