Nice Rioja, nothing overly complex. Needs some time to open up, but once it does I get a nice boysenberry, touch of molasses, and hint of plum on the nose. Nice even tannins, and somewhat of a tart finish. I would but it again.

Plum and cranberry with velvety tannins, after it opens up a bit. Not much complexity to it, but decent qpr.

Good smooth Spanish wine for $10 at Costco. Very Spanish, slightly dry, grape forward.

A good medium bodied red, and while a little on the sweet side, for just over $11 it's hard to beat.
