Cavas de Chacras 2008 Reserve Bonarda (Mendoza)
- Online Exclusive
- $12
Aromas of dark berry are potent but narrow and limited, and there’s a slight note of minty grass as well. The wine is juicy, bouncy and fresh in the mouth, with dark cherry and blackberry flavors. Simple, fruity and tasty, with good balance.

Cavas de Chacras 1999 Reserve Malbec (Mendoza)
- $13
Not sure why this 1999 would still be on the market as a current release, but at the very least it shows that Malbec ages fairly well. The nose is still largely fresh, while the red fruit flavors fall into the raspberry, plum and cassis category. Not terribly lush but solid. Imported by The Wandering Epicurean.

Cavas de Chacras 2008 Reserve Pinot Noir (Mendoza)
- Online Exclusive
- $12
Hot and horsey, and it remains forced and clumsy in the mouth. Tastes more sour than fruity, with a heavy, short, chunky finish. Drinkable only in an extreme situation.

Cavas de Chacras 2004 Reserve Rosé (Mendoza)
- $10
Slightly harsh aromas of radish and leather are a little raw. Tastes like fresh nectarines and berries, then turns a bit mealy on the finish. Imported by The Wandering Epicurean.
