Sideshow 2003 The Barker Garnacha (Calatayud)

  • Best Buy
  1. $9
The label says the Barker is big, loud and Spanish, and it’s right. This wine is a racy, ripe, lively Garnacha with weight, flavor and balance. Tastes good, with cherry, plum, coffee and chocolate all stepping up and taking a bow. Ripe and ready at 14.5%, but on the money.  — M.S.  (9/1/2006)

Sideshow 2004 The Contortionist Red (South Eastern Australia)

  • Best Buy
  1. $9
Both the nose and palate deliver bouncy red plum and cherry fruit. It’s an easy-drinking, weekday-night wine, and a good introductory GSM. 45% Grenache, 35% Shiraz, 20% Mourvèdre. Imported by Winery Exchange.  — D.T.  (2/1/2006)

Sideshow 2004 Queen Roma Riesling (South Eastern Australia)

  1. $9
Mouthfilling, with modest flavors of sour apple and pear. Citrus and white pepper aromas start things off. A good, introductory Riesling. Imported by Winery Exchange.  — D.T.  (4/1/2006)

Sideshow 2004 La Rosa Rosé (Campo de Borja)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $9
Despite the silly packaging and strange orange tint, this is a solid if unusual rosado that registers sweet but likable. It’s chunky, with berry flavors and a shot of leather and animal. By no means is it elevated or for the long haul. Drink now or hold your peace. Imported by Winery Exchange.  — M.S.  (11/1/2006)
