Boring label. Light color. A hint of pink. Smells lightly of citrus. Like lemon water. Easy drinking. Pears. 🍐. Simple. — 13 days ago
This is a workable red of the French Bordeaux style. Deep purple color. Chalk and medicinal berries. Fairly smooth though. Hints of mint and blackberry syrup too. It’s pretty good. Well worth the $6 at Grocery O. — 18 days ago
Aged. Nice catchy label. French chateau vibes for the Spanish hacienda. Dark as night in the cup. Heady, funky nose. Has plenty of stewed fruits and a bit of wet loam. Just a hint of wet granite in the rain. Flavors are complex. Just a little raisin. But good raisins soaked in wine. Plenty of black currants. Maybe some black elderberries as well. This is still tannin heavy. Could age even more. This is a very nice Rioja Reserva. Would pair amazingly with membrillo, dry salty cheeses and a black pepper pork salami. — a month ago
Nice kitchen sink blend. Sauv, Merlot and Syrah with Garnacha and Cariñena. Deep dark color. Plum skin black/purple. Smells of violet candies and coffee grounds. Hint of baked plum/cherry cobbler. Flavor is complex and full. Minerality in spades. Chewy and rich. Bit of dark chocolate and mocha with the fruits like berry and plums. This should age nicely longer, but it’s excellent and representative of the greatness of Priorat. — 5 days ago
Simple and cute label. Lovely straw-gold color. Smells like lemon peels and sea brine. Flavors are bright, brisk and luscious. This is a nice white with substance and pop! Buen. — 16 days ago
Old-timey whisky bottle design. Kinda catches the eye. Sets it apart. Color of blood. Deep ruby-red. Slightly orange on the edge. Nice aromas. Dry leaves, cap-gun caps, cherry jelly, detergents, and garam masala. Flavors are excellent. Bittersweet chocolate, tart berry cocktail mixers, un-sweet part of molasses, minerals. This is a CA red with a hint of old world vibes. Real grippy. Not, I repeat not, fruit-bombed. Even at 14.1%! Perfect age seven years on. Wish I could remember where and why I got it. This wine should make the ‘California Republuc’ proud. — a month ago
Aussie meets Euro label and screw-top style bottle. Smells forestial with a hint of tart citrus-berry sauce. Flavors are smooth and juicy. Some warm spices with a berry pastry flavors. Plenty of that Sang tannin in there too. This is a great wine at a great price! — 10 days ago
Catchy and fun label. Perfect color of a fresh copper penny. Smells of fruits and fragrant vegetables. Flavors are melons and citrus. Grapefruit without the bitterness. This is a very pleasing cheap Rosé. Flavorful, crisp and fragrant. Goes well with spicy 🌶️ noodles and fruit salads. — 15 days ago
Stand by my previous review. A very Italian style. It’s got more time to soften if you want to hold on until it’s 10th or 15th b day. Nice value and great with spicy eggplant on fettuccini. — a month ago

Cheapie at Trader Joe’s. This is a pretty well structured version on the Carménère wine Chile made famous. Plenty of tobacco leaf. Hint of black licorice. Robust dark as night red wine. Not amazingly dynamic, but gratifying stuff. — 3 days ago
