San Telmo 2003 Shiraz (Mendoza)
- Best Buy
- $7
A bit rubbery and raw, but with a hearty backbone. The nose deals plum and black cherry along with some smoky wet leather, while the palate is grapey with a touch of blueberry. Finishes clean and simple.

San Telmo 2003 Malbec (Mendoza)
- Best Buy
- $7
Jammy, sweet and leathery on the nose, with a kick of sourness. The palate is common, with medium red fruit that’s strawberry-raspberry in style. Adequate on the palate, and generally satisfying.

San Telmo 2004 Malbec (Mendoza)
- $7
Gritty on the nose, with hints of raisin and chocolate. Big in the mouth, but bulky and wobbly, with cooked plum and raisin flavors. Finishes a touch flat, with black cherry notes. Imported by Palm Bay Imports.

San Telmo 2000 Chardonnay (Mendoza)
- $10
Very light in color, much like hay. A mute nose follows, barely offering something akin to applesauce. It’s sugary on the palate, with a buttery finish. Potent acidity prevents it from being ponderous, yet it’s still a heavyweight.

San Telmo 2003 Chardonnay (Mendoza)
- $7
Smells hot but neutral, with meek flavors of citrus and pineapple. Lots of vibrant acidity creates a scouring mouthfeel, but what is there to say about the bland flavors of soda crackers and citrus pith?

San Telmo 2005 Malbec (Mendoza)
- Online Exclusive
- $8
Brambly and aggressive, with rubbery aromas that aren't what you'd call "inviting." There's some cherry and raspberry on the palate, but also a lot of uncomplimentary raspy notes as well as an overriding burnt, grassy flavor.

San Telmo 2003 Merlot (Mendoza)
- $7
Starts with sweaty leather and peanut aromas before moving on to linear, sour flavors. Pure acid on the finish does nothing to make it chummier.
