  Hints of chocolate on the nose. Lots of red fruit, slightly tannic finish. Fantastic for the price ($7.99)

  Sweet red fruit with sweet, well integrated tannins and only a hint of rhubarb, which I find offputting in garnachas. Straightforward drop that's well priced.

  Ruby purple; all fruit here, tons of raspberry, cranberry, blueberry, simple with no tannin but this is exactly how a wine at this price should perform, shorter finish, very drinkable by itself but an even better candidate for sangria- I'll need to make some from the next bottle.

  My current favorite under ten bucks. Hell, it's under nine bucks. It has a nose of caramel. Delicious leathery, toffee flavors with a finish that goes and goes. Totally underpriced at around 8 bucks.

  Compared with Borsao's cheaper Garnacha blend, more cherry and fruit, with touches of the same garden vegetable flavors: green and red bell peppers, celery, sundried tomato, leather. I prefer the cheaper blend -- which is one of my favorites right now-- but this is still a lovely wine. <Campo de Borja, Spain, 2012>. Seoul cost: W14,900 (under $14 USD).
