Perfect balance of Cab & Malbec with a dash of Verdot. I wish Trader Joe’s didn’t close their Wine Shop in NYC. I will be looking for this elsewhere, even if I have to pay a bit more for it. — 3 years ago
Enjoyable from first sip upon opening. The opacity of it leads you to think you’re in for a thicker, more complex wine. But surprisingly light and fruity (strawberry, slight tobacco)… almost like a Pinot. — 3 years ago

Even without being a fan of carmenere, this is a great wine. Very balanced, tasting ripe black fruits (like plum or blackberry) and lots of alcohol, but very strong wine. I really liked it. — 3 years ago

Outrageously nice value for $13. This is maybe only my second or third Malbec but this was by far my favorite On the nose I get some dark fruits, baguette, anise. Tannins could be better incorporated (maybe this changes with age?) but they’re there, acidity is there but the body hides it. Definitely get some chocolate towards the end, lightly toasted tobacco on the finish. Magenta rim, deep opaque purple color. Yeah probably one of the best red wines I’ve found at this price point in 2024. I would definitely buy again and recommend to a friend. — 5 months ago
