Alpamanta 2007 Reserva Malbec (Mendoza)
- $45
Opens with heavy, gaseous aromas but once it settles down it shows much better. The palate is warm and chunky, with full berry flavors that come with a bit of earthy funk. Finishes lush and smooth, and while it’s a fine Malbec, I found that it comes up short on expression.

Alpamanta 2009 Natal Malbec (Mendoza)
- Online Exclusive
- $15
Fiery, spicy, herbal black fruit aromas set up a tight, herbal palate with oak in support. Flavors are sweet and also creamy due to ample oak, while the finish is light in fruit, with a tomato accent.

Alpamanta 2009 Natal Chardonnay (Mendoza)
- Online Exclusive
- $15
Yellow in color, blowsy on the nose, and chunky to the max in the mouth. This wine is big, forced and heavy, with orange, banana and melon flavors. Finishes soft and with no discernible oak or elegance.

Alpamanta 2009 Natal Cabernet Sauvignon (Mendoza)
- Online Exclusive
- $15
Wild, edgy and hot on the nose, which breaks up fast. The palate is narrow, sweet and pruney; stewed up on the finish and grapey throughout.
