Portillo 2009 Estate Bottled Cabernet Sauvignon (Uco Valley)
Best Buy
Price
$10
This wine has been on the upswing in recent vintages. Here it’s clean and delivering full berry and cherry aromas. The palate is juicy, driving and whole, with berry, cherry and light chocolate flavors. Finishes racy, fresh and with slight astringency from tannic bite.

Portillo 2009 Merlot (Uco Valley)
Best Buy
Price
$10
Much better than prior vintages, when it was known as Finca El Portillo. The nose is jammy and shows black fruit aromas, while the palate is complete and full but juicy, with plum and black cherry flavors. Pepper and toast flavors infiltrate the finish.

Portillo 2008 Estate Bottled Cabernet Sauvignon (Uco Valley)
Best Buy
Price
$10
Cola, black fruit and a pinch of green herbs define the bouquet on this solid bargain Cabernet. The palate has a good, healthy feel and flavors of roasted berry, pepper and cola. Finishes mildly minty yet juicy.

Portillo 2010 Estate Bottled Sauvignon Blanc (Uco Valley)
Best Buy
Price
$10
Citrus and peach aromas are basic but clean. The palate starts out fresh and easy before losing some steam, but along the way there’s peach, green apple and dry melon flavors. Good for a simple, tropical-style white wine.

Portillo 2009 Estate Bottled Pinot Noir (Uco Valley)
Best Buy
Online Exclusive
Price
$10
Here’s a crisp by-the-glass style of Pinot that’s bringing good cherry and raspberry aromas, mild spice notes, and then a firm but lean body with plenty of acidity to propel crisp, cutting flavors of red plum and tart berry. Light and sheering but not sour or too thin.

Portillo 2010 Estate Bottled Chardonnay (Uco Valley)
Online Exclusive
Price
$10
Light and mostly neutral smelling, with a hint of pear and apple. The palate is zesty, lean and well cut, however the flavors are more pithy and bitter, with orange and nectarine notes. Finishes hot and peppery.

Portillo 2011 Estate Bottled Chardonnay (Uco Valley)
Online Exclusive
Price
$10
White peach and papaya aromas are sweet and tropical, while saline notes play second fiddle. Feels tangy, juicy and lean, with dilute lemon and green banana flavors. Wet and watery on the finish.
— M.S.
