Trader Joes does it again! This wine is inexpensive, easy to drink and smooth to the finish. Highly recommend this great value wine.

People say they don't like it but give it a score of 8+? Trader Joes recommendation by several critics. I found it pretty drinkable! Dark cherry & oak. Give this one time to breathe. For the price $9 it's not a bad pick from Spain's top wine region, Rioja. You get a better wine than you pay for!

#UnderTenBucks? Hell yeah. Pretty good #budgetbuy/#dailydrinker. Big fruit but not overly sweet. Great with dinner. Dark cherry and plum notes. Will be buying again. #traderjoes

Quite tasty for a girls' night out, very drinkable. We all agreed that it was better than the $9 price tag.

2020 vintage. Better than the 2019. Almost as good as the 2015.
