Fairly green, a bit oxidized and old smelling. The palate is short and choppy, with hard leftover tannins and dry, herbal fruit flavors that push up against vegetal. Sweetness re-enters the picture on the finish, but overall this is too dried up and strained to rate higher. 1 Note

A modern, ripe, full-bodied Chardonnay that sports an Australian personality and a bright gold luster. It’s richly buttered, with lemon, pineapple, green apple and cinnamon flavors. Creamy on the finish yet it holds onto its minerality. An atypical Navarran white due to its richness. 1 Note

A masterful mixture of Tempranillo, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon. Aromas of wood smoke, blackberry and plum. An open wine for near-term drinking. Sweet and rich at the core, while pure cacao darkens the tail end. 1 Note

A solid, earthy style of Navarran red wine, with plum, berry and meaty aromas. The palate is forward, with solid flavors of tobacco, plum, tomato and leather. More fruity than herbal, with heat, thyme, mocha and coffee on the finish. Tastes like something from the Old World. Not currently imported. 1 Note

On par with Chivite’s other Reservas, but this infant just isn’t talking much quite yet. Nuances of black pepper, plum and oak play on the nose. Rich mouthfeel; juicy red berry and earth flavors peeking from the palate. Wake this one up 2005–2015. 1 Note

Rich, big and burly, this blend of Tempranillo, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot is juicy, with full-on black cherry, plum, soil, ink and oak flavors. The nose is somewhat closed, but with aeration reveals black pepper and vanilla nuances. Finishes with black tea, char and dry, chalky tannins. Still a baby, but so promising. Give it 5+ years. Cellar Selection. 1 Note
