Lamadrid Single Vineyard Reserva Malbec 2010 $19.99
Bright
ruby-red. Aromas of blackberry, licorice and floral oils are
complicated by a peppery note and a hint of maple syrup. Dense, round
and lightly saline, with a suave, silky Old World texture to its flavors
of blackberry and fig. Most impressive today on the long, rising
finish, which features big but lush tannins and an impression of
seamlessness. A lot of wine for the price. International Wine Cellar, 91 pts
Zolo Torrontes 2012 $11.99
This crisp and refreshing white wine has aromas of white flowers and tropical fruits along with a fresh and balanced mouth feel. It is great for sipping on its own or to have with poultry or seafood.
Gen5 Cabernet Sauvignon 2010 $9.99
The grapes for this Lodi, CA Cab were sustainably farmed by the Lange family, fifth-generation farmers (hence the name Gen5). The
fruit-forward Cabernet is medium-bodied, with soft tannins and an
abundance of blackberry-black currant flavors and an intriguing
herbal/smoky finish that would make it a great match with barbecued
meats, chili and robust winter stews. This is a great everyday red wine. Kira O'Donnell, Sacramento Magazine
Gen5 Chardonnay 2011 $9.99
Pale
golden color. Smoked whole nuts, grassy herbs and nettles, and grilled
peach aromas and flavors with a supple, tangy light-to-medium body and a
lime creme brulee and tart kiwi skin finish. Should pair well with
spicy Latin poultry dishes. Tastings.com
