A fantastic value in organic malbec from Argentina, a fruit-forward Cotes du Rhone from a ripe vintage, a classic racy albariño from northwestern Spain, an affordable and delicious Sonoma chardonnay and a delightful new rosé prosecco - yeah, we can drink well this week, my friends.
GREAT VALUE
Three stars (Extraordinary)
The purple ruby color of this wine promises intensity, and the flavors deliver with notes of blackberry, blueberry, violets, wild thyme and rosemary. This exciting wine is made with organic grapes and aged in concrete, which gives the wine a little rustic texture while allowing the top-quality fruit to shine. A terrific bargain. Alcohol by volume: 14 percent.
