    RIBERA DEL DUERO

    94 Legón 2016 Premium (Ribera del Duero). Ripe blackberry, cola and oaky vanilla aromas are lush and ooze quality. A ramped-up palate is intense but in fine shape, while black-plum, blackberry and black-cherry flavors sizzle with energy on bucking finish that portends many good years to come; drink through 2035. The Northeast Wine Company. —M.S.

    abv: 14% Price: $45

    94 Vega Sicilia 2014 Valbuena 5° (Ribera del Duero). Cuddly berry aromas include a hint of raisin. The palate echoes the nose, meaning this is full and ripe, with smooth tannins supporting raisiny softness. Cassis, exotic spice notes and baked berry flavors are lush on the finish. This seems ready for near-term drinking; enjoy now through 2030. Europvin USA. —M.S.
