San Huberto 2010 Nina Gran Malbec (Mendoza)
- $40
After tasting a number of underwhelming San Huberto Malbecs, this high-end offering changes things up. It’s piercing and serious up front, with rubber and black-fruit aromas. Although it clamps down due to hard tannins, there’s enough body, oak, black-fruit flavor and vanilla to carry it through to a long finish. It’s by far the best wine from this label I’ve tried…

San Huberto 2007 Nina Blend Red
- $20
Roasted and decidedly earthy on the nose, this has mature aromas of coffee, spice and herb note. A solid fabric of aged tannins and acidity bolster the wild berry and cherry flavors, which finish syrupy and raisiny. A blend of 50% Petit Verdot, 30% Cabernet Sauvignon and 20% Malbec.

San Huberto 2005 Torrontés (Aminga Valley)
- Best Buy
- $9
Pale in color, almost silver, with light but fresh floral aromas. A touch simple on the palate, but still round and tasty enough to earn points; you’ll find attractive pear and cinnamon flavors. Lightweight yet fluid on the finish. An easygoing but likable rendition of Torrontès. Imported by Victoire Imports.

San Huberto 2010 Reserva Syrah
- $13
This Syrah leads with standard berry and chocolate aromas. The mouthfeel is largely fresh, and while there’s creamy oak as part of the flavor package, there’s also good berry character and mint.

San Huberto 2010 Reserva Cabernet Sauvignon
- $13
While the nose is toasted, raw and spicy, the palate is weighty and legit, with grabby tannins and generic but solid flavors of mixed berries, herbal notes and oak. The finish is savory and slightly barbecued in flavor.

San Huberto 2003 Crianza Cabernet Sauvignon
- Best Buy
- $10
A little bit of bramble and green on the nose, but by and large this wine is solid. The palate offers sweetness and brown sugar along with zesty fruit, while the tannic structure and persistence are unavoidable. Imported by Victoire Imports.

San Huberto 2003 Crianza Malbec
- Best Buy
- $10
Displays a nice ruby tint in front of full, ripe, almost smoky aromas. The palate is a bit fat and sweet, with dark plum and blackberry flavors offset by a slight dab of buttery oak. A simple, one-note kind of red, but a good one nonetheless. Imported by Victoire Imports.

San Huberto 2011 Torrontés
- Best Buy
- $9
This is fresh and open on the nose, which is what you’d want from a $9 quaffer like this. It tastes good and fruity, with lychee, green apple and spice flavors working together. Vanilla and papaya notes come up on the mild finish.
