Salvatore Principe 2009 Luscious Red, Artist's Collection Limited Edition

  • Best Buy
  1. $10
One could do way worse than this proprietary California blend. It’s thick, jammy and yet also sublime with sweet licorice dominating the scene.  — V.B.  (12/1/2011)

Salvatore Principe 2009 Take Flight, Artists Collection Limited Edition Zinfandel (Lodi)

  • Best Buy
  1. $9
For $9 a nice wine in a nice package, made from old-vine Zinfandel from Lodi. The red fruit on the nose pops out pleasantly followed by smooth tannins and a fruity, chocolaty mix of flavors.  — V.B.  (12/1/2011)

Salvatore Principe 2010 Artist's Collection Torrontés (Cafayate)

  • Best Buy
  1. $10
Nice, clean and friendly, which is about 99% of the game for this variety. Aromas of flowers, lychee and vanilla bean are welcoming, while the palate is fresh and standard, with lemon-lime and citrusy flavors. A refreshing white to drink as soon as possible.  — M.S.  (5/1/2011)

Salvatore Principe 2010 In The Groove Chardonnay

  • Best Buy
  • Online Exclusive
  1. $10
For the price, this Chardonnay will do nicely, tasting of very ripe mango and Nilla wafer, an all-around crisp, medium-bodied white with good balance between fruit, and acidity and light alcohol. Will pair deliciously with crab.  — V.B.  (3/1/2012)

Salvatore Principe 2011 Cabernet Sauvignon (Mendoza)

  • Best Buy
  1. $10
At first, this smells charred and meaty, but blackberry, leather and roasted plum aromas soon sneak out. This runs big, with good acidity and manageable tannins. Flavors of cherry and cassis are lively and familiar.  — M.S.  (10/1/2012)

Salvatore Principe 2011 Malbec (Mendoza)

  • Best Buy
  1. $10
The welcoming aromas of red berry and cherry are slightly smoky and spicy. Showing good body, this has light tannins, with flavors of toasty plum, berry, chocolate and spice. It’s round, mellow and easy on the finish.  — M.S.  (8/1/2012)

Salvatore Principe 2007 Running with the Bulls Cabernet Sauvignon

  • Best Buy
  1. $10
Nice and dry, with good varietal flavors of blackberries and currants, wrapped into rich tannins. It’s a fine Cabernet to drink with ordinary food, and a good value.  — S.H.  (12/15/2010)
