At $7 a liter the price might be right, but that’s about as far as we’re willing to go in praising this boxed combo of Chardonnay with 10% Torrontés. The wine has mushy aromas of corn and hay, while the apple flavors are mealy and bring back some of the baked corn from the nose. Candied on the finish and flat.

Heavy and raisiny stuff, with thick but narrow black plum fruit boosted by a streak of acidity that doesn’t do much besides make things fiery. Poorly balanced Cab-Malbec, even for box wine.
