($17, Ole Imports): This Tempranillo-based wine is robust without being heavy because perky acidity keeps it fresh and lively.  Savory notes mingle with the dark fruity flavors.  There’s a food-friendly subtle and attractive bitterness in finish. Fine tannins allow you to enjoy it now with hearty fare.  Its lovely balance suggests it will develop nicely with bottle age, so there’s no rush.
