Pretty darn good red wine for what it costs. Smells like pure raspberries and black cherries, with nothing mucking it up. Has balance and acid, a solid mouthfeel, and no abnormal funk or green. In its price category it’s as good as you could ask for. Imported by Jorge Ordoñez/Fine Estates from Spain.

Violet as all get-out, with a nose that initially smells like bug juice. This is all about sweet, youthful fruit, so if you’re looking for sophistication at bargain- basement prices you’re shopping in the wrong place. What you will get is blackberry fruit, sweetness and gummy tannins. In the grand scheme of things it’s just o.k., but for $6 you should not expect more.

A strong peppery quality infiltrates the nose, which otherwise has some simple berry aromas to offer. And the palate is scouring and sour. La Mancha can do better than this.

Wild, foxy and full of young, bursting berry fruit. There’s nothing tamed or refined or special about this youthful Tempranillo. The flavors of plum and berries are intense, bright, grabby and modest in what they deliver. Consistent wine from year to year.

The color was a deep, dark purple. Aromas of wild flowers and chocolate dominated the nose. Flavors of wild blueberry, licorice and chocolate dominated the palate and the tannins were chewy and smooth. For a young table wine, I was surprised at the complexity. We didn’t pair it with anything, but it was very good by itself. As a chocoholic, I was drawn into frequent sips just to taste its chocolaty flavors again and again. Looking for something tasty for under $10? Great bargain!
