The 2009 Finca de los Vientos is 100% Prieto Picudo that was naturally fermented and raised in stainless steel. An earthy minerality, a hint of balsamic, and cranberry aromas inform the nose of this ripe, succulent, moderately structured red. Smooth textured and with good balance and volume, it will deliver enjoyment for another 4-5 years. Importer: Peninsula Wines, New Rochelle, NY; www.Peninsua-wines.com

The 2009 Finca de los Vientos is made from Prieto Picudo, an indigenous grape planted at a high elevation of 2,400 feet. Somewhat of a “like it or leave it” effort that was aged completely in tank, it reveals a volcanic, earthy, almost fecal character, with nearly bizarre aromatics. While it may be controversial, I thought readers should have a chance to taste something from this particular grape. These wines are made from one of Spain’s talented young viticulturists, Raul Perez, and winemaker Noelia de Paz. Importer: Ole and Peninsula Wines (Patrick Mata),New Rochelle, NY; tel.
