From winemakers Juan and Diego Magana, the 2007 Dignus is an amazing wine for the price. A blend of 50% Tempranillo, 25% Merlot (from cuttings also supplied to Bordeaux's Petrus vineyard) and 25% Cabernet Sauvignon, it smells like a top-class Pomerol from that tiny appellation's plateau. Abundant scents of mocha, black cherries and blacker fruits jump from the glass of this flamboyant, medium to full-bodied, luscious wine. With lively acidity, rich, concentrated fruit, and a luxurious texture as well as length, this would be a heck-of-a wine for $50. At $21, it's a steal! Drink it over the next 2-4 years. -Robert Parker

Bright ruby. Fresh red berries and spices on the nose. Taut and precise, offering tangy redcurrant and bitter cherry flavors underscored by bright minerality. Finishes with good clarity and length, repeating the redcurrant note. This vineyard is reportedly all limestone.
