A slightly musty Boudreaux that drinks well today. A heavier viscosity than most. I like it but others at the table don't agree. Under $20. — 10 years ago

Bevion. An Italian Piemonte Chardonnay. Very well balanced. Not overly oaked but spent some time in a barrel. Very pleasurable to drink. I believe it was about $12. — 10 years ago

8.3

Still a little tight. Suggest cellaring to 16/17. Will open in the glass. Nothing special going in here. For an everyday wine I can think of better at a lower price points. — 11 years ago

I like Tempranillo because it's an easy to drink wine yet can exhibit some welcome complexity from time to time. This is an excellent choice at a $9.99 price point. Starts out with heavy fig notes and quickly mellows out into a luscious glass with a creamy mouth feel. This may have bumped the Glascon Malbec blend as my "go to" pizza/burger wine. — 10 years ago

An unbelievable wine. Sad this is my last bottle. Fruit forward with a beautiful complexity and balanced creamy finish. Best Spanish wine I have ever drank — 11 years ago
