Luna Beberide, Castilla y León (Spain) “Tierras de Luna” 2003

($30, Grapes of Spain): Inclusion of Cabernet and Merlot in this blend gives the wine a slightly New Worldish style, but the rich complexity imparted by Mencia comes through loud and clear.  Good power and remarkable acidity and lift- — considering the number of flabby wines from 2003 — equals an excellent choice for hearty fare this fall. 88 Michael Apstein Aug 28, 2007
