Wow. Complex & vibrant. Plum, blackcurrant, manchego/mature cheddar, green herbs, bell pepper, and long dry cacao finish. Well beyond its $10 price. Better if sat for 2+ hours after opening. The 2011 will taste better in 2018, it's a bit too high on tannins. — 9 years ago

Dry, soft, fairly well balanced. A solid wine you can find most anywhere in the US. — 10 years ago

8.0

Hints of strawberries, roses, with an earthy undertone. Flat profile, but totally drinkable unless you're looking for distinct flavors and complexity. Analogous to listening to music with earplugs in. Bought in Pescadero, Ca. — 9 years ago

Alamos Mendoza Malbec 2014

Drinkable budget red you can get in a pinch late at night from 7-Eleven, but by no means great. — 10 years ago

A rich, dark, smooth wine at £7-8. Black fruit, cocoa (2014 vintage) — 9 years ago

Castillo de Calatrava

Mouthy, tart, little red fruit, fairly straightforward. Let it sit for an hour or more. Can do better for £8 though. — 9 years ago

6.5

Avoid. Poor balance, sour fruit juice, lacks any real "Tempranillo" qualities. — 10 years ago
