Wine Advocate 91 points (Jun 2011) The 2008 Navaherreros Tinto, also 100% Garnacha, was aged in seasoned oak barrels. It displays greater aromatic complexity in its display of cigar box, Asian spices, incense, and black cherry. The wine has excellent volume, precision balance, lively acidity, and a pure, silky finish. It is an outstanding value meant for drinking over the next 5-6 years.  Steve Tanzer 91 points (Nov 2010) Vivid ruby. Red and dark berry preserves on the nose, with complicating notes of licorice and mocha. Lively raspberry and blackberry flavors stain the palate and show very good precision, complemented by an exotic floral quality that gains power with air. This suave wine finishes with strong cut and sweet persistence.
