Bodega Carmine Granata 2007 Tradicional Oak Cask Malbec (Mendoza)
- $20
Sweet on the nose, with licorice and black pepper dust along with ripe black fruit aromas. The palate is deep and pure, with black fruit flavors and a slightly syrupy underbelly. Burns a little on the finish, with spice and fig flavors providing depth and character. 416 cases produced.

Bodega Carmine Granata 2008 Cabernet Sauvignon (Mendoza)
- Online Exclusive
- $17
Candied, dark and murky on the nose, then narrow, clampy and tannic in the mouth. Flavors are herbal, while the fruit content is sweet blackberry and black plum. Short and hollow on the finish, which leaves a grapey residue.

Bodega Carmine Granata 2007 Nicolás Granata Edición Especial Numerada Malbec (Mendoza)
- Online Exclusive
- $30
Awfully green and scratchy for a $30 “special edition” Malbec. The nose is brambly and rapidly devolves into outright grassy. The palate is narrow and underdeveloped, with reedy, raspy flavors of plum, raspberry and mint. Far from what you’d hope for from a higher-priced wine; 350 cases produced.

Bodega Carmine Granata 2008 Malbec (Mendoza)
- Online Exclusive
- $17
Grapey blackberry aromas come across foxy. The palate is wet and high in acidity, leaving a semisour flavor profile with only a few hints of sweetness around the edges. Drying, herbal and salty.

Bodega Carmine Granata 2009 Sémillon (Mendoza)
- Online Exclusive
- $17
Ashy, green and funky smelling, then sweet, chunky and murky tasting. Nothing is meshing here. It’s barely acceptable.
