El análisis de varianza (ANOVA) para un nivel de confianza del 85% nos indica que el XXXX'03 es diferente a la media de los 6 vinos de la competencia debido a una tonalidad de color menor (tonos azules), notas más intensas a frutas del bosque y florales y menos intensas a tostados/ahumados, vainilla/coco y ***rancio/evolución***. En boca, presenta una intensidad retronasal y astringencia mayor con menor acidez.
Getting all technical here about wine (instead of just drinking it). Anyway, any ideas about rancio/evolución. Is it sour? gone off?

Spanish term (edited):
rancio/evoluci�n
Selected
rancio / aged or rancid / altered
James is right about "rancio" being used in English, BUT be careful. Look at this evaluation:
Gran Vega evidenció defectos ya de mayor importancia, pero con sus 4 puntos quedó cerca del aprobado. Por último, la muestra de Don Simón obtuvo un claro suspenso, al encontrarse ***rancio, por un exceso de evolución en la botella***.
http://revista.consumer.es/web/es/20001101/actualidad/analis...
Now look at the definitions of the words in Spanish:
Rancio: Olor butírico de un vino alterado o quebrado. No confundir con los vinos rancios, exquisitos vinos dulces naturales, asoleados y maduros.
http://vinocata.com/htmlyjs/r.htm
EVOLUCIONADO: Vino que ha sufrido modificaciones con el paso del tiempo
http://www.geocities.com/Paris/9621/vinosdic.html
Rancio as a defect is definitely rancid:
Butyric acid bacteria infection.
16 Rancid
17 Fishy
http://honeycreek.us/winefaults.htm
In your text, it's probably rancio, as James suggested. (I'd use "aged" for the evolución), as the rest of the attributes appear to be positive. Here's one def. on "rancio":
Rancio
Obscure wine-tasting term with several conflicting definitions. Perhaps etymologically akin to "rancid" in English, but not so pejorative. Emile Peynaud lists it as synonymous with "maderized" (see above); Alexis Lichine notes that it may represent the "nutty" flavor of Sherry, the "cooked" taste of some California sweet wines, and the "pungent" flavor of Madeira, Marsala and Malaga, and the "characteristic" flavor of older Banyuls from Southwestern France; Amerine and Roessler find it in older, oxidized, usually sweet red wines; and other sources point to it in Cognacs and Brandies de Jerez. The point in this extended series of quotes, frankly, is to suggest that the term is too vague, and too obscure, to be of much use. http://www.wine-lovers-page.com/cgi-bin/lexicon/gd.cgi?w=387

Maturation
The aging period at the winery during which the wine evolves to a state of readiness for bottling. Also the ongoing development of fine wines during a period of bottle aging.

Spanish term (edited):
rancio/evoluci�n
rancio/developed
I would leave 'rancio' as it is. It is used fairly widely to described wine (particularly in France and Spain) that has been aged for a long time. You'll find some alternatives at this link: http://www.wine-lovers-page.com/cgi-bin/lexicon/gd.cgi?w=387
As for 'evolución' I suppose it means 'evolucionado' or 'well- developed'. Here's another reference:
Developed
Mature. A well-developed wine is more drinkable than an undeveloped one.

The term 'developed rancio' can also be used:

los t�cnicos han valorado mucho mejor los vinos con car�cter afrutado y estructura en boca a los de crianza con cierta evoluci�n y poco equilibrados o ligeros en boca.
