Every selection of our 90 point red wine, based on a 100-point scale, has been taste-tested and received at least a 90 point rating by one or more highly respected wine publications.

Some of the best red wine in the world can be found in our inventory. Choose your favorite varietal and read our very own wine expert’s comments to find the right balance of flavors to fit your palate.

garnacha del fuego 2011

2011 Garnacha de Fuego

"This amazing wine boasts a dark ruby/purple color along with a sweet kiss of jammy black cherries intertwined with crushed rock notes that give the wine an undeniable minerality. As it hits the palate, a full-bodied, voluptuous texture takes hold and the flavor profile moves towards blacker fruits (ripe raspberries and black currants) intermixed with camphor and forest floor. This full-bodied, rich, glycerin-filled effort should drink well for 4-5 years, perhaps longer."

2010 Bodegas Sierra Cantabria

"Deep violet color.  Brighter and more lithe than the 2009 version, offering fresh red berry and floral aromas and flavors and showing a touch of youthful jamminess.  Lively and focused, with very good back-end clarity and lingering spiciness.  Still very young but I find this delicious now."

granatxa negra herencia altes 2011

2011 Herencia

"An incredible value and full-throttle wine made from 100% Grenache. This offering, from very old vines and aged completely in concrete, is a naked, unadulterated, unmanipulated effort with great minerality that are normally found in $50+ wines. At these ridiculously low prices, consumers will never suspect the wines are at this level of quality. This outstanding wine offers loads of kirsch, raspberry, licorice, garrigue and chalky minerality. Medium to full-bodied and dense, it is best consumed over the next 2-3 years. A killer value."

Thank you for buying us out!

2011 Zorzal

"It has a wonderful bouquet with blackberry, tomato vine and granitic notes. It has what you might call a “naked” nose disrobed of oak, but it is very pure and vibrant. The palate is fresh and vibrant embroidered with brisk, fine tannins. It is suffused with lively pure black cherry and bilberry fruit and a taut, citric, dry finish. You would never guess this is from Argentina, and it is just downright, unapologetically delicious."
