Viña Bisquertt 2010 La Joya Reserve Merlot (Colchagua Valley)
- Best Buy
- Online Exclusive
- $11
Toasty, rich and spicy on the nose, with big black fruit aromas, a dusting of raw oak and smoked meat. It’s full, round and lush in the mouth, with ripe flavors of blackberry and oak but nothing candied, faux or cheap tasting. Smooth, full and chocolaty on the finish; excellent overall for $11 Merlot.

Viña Bisquertt 2006 Casa La Joya Gran Reserve Merlot (Colchagua Valley)
- Best Buy
- $13
Round, floral, fruity and just a bit bretty. Almost everything is right about this value-priced wine. The fruit is dark and veers toward black cherry and plum, while the feel is good. Finishes with a nice run of dry oak and chocolate flavors.

Viña Bisquertt 2007 Ecos de Rulo Carmenère (Colchagua Valley)
- $19
Very good Carmenère with requisite tea, herbal and bold berry aromas. The palate is just right in that it’s neither heavy nor sharp, and the flavors of cola, burnt brown sugar and roasted berries are smooth and deep. Finishes with notes of coffee, herbs and sweet fruits as it hits the target close to the bull’s eye.

Viña Bisquertt 2004 Casa La Joya Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon (Colchagua Valley)
- Best Buy
- $9
Lively, rich and complete. There’s a lot of wine here for under $10, and the assumption in these parts is that it has everything the average consumer is looking for. Boysenberry, blackberry and cassis flavors are lively yet round, while the finish is saturated and thorough. A full-strength red at a great price. Imported by Prestige Wine Group.

Viña Bisquertt 2003 Casa La Joya Gran Reserve Carmenère (Colchagua Valley)
- Best Buy
- $13
Big and relaxed, with a nice perfume that includes spice and earth. Shows balance and firmness on the tongue, with hints of olive, toast and fudge. Exemplary Carmenère from a good vintage. Imported by Prestige Wine Group.

Viña Bisquertt 2009 La Joya Reserve Syrah (Colchagua Valley)
- Best Buy
- $10
Dark and smoky, like hickory burning alongside blackberry, spice and turned earth. The palate has jammy black plum and blackberry flavors mixed with herbs, while good acidity gives it length. Finishes long, spicy and herbal, with enough freshness to make it food friendly.

Viña Bisquertt 2003 Casa La Joya Reserve Merlot (Colchagua Valley)
- Best Buy
- $9
Deep in color, with sweet, rich aromas that revolve around molasses and bacon but fold in plum, blackberry and toast. For the price this is an excellent wine, and price notwithstanding it’s very good. The black fruit is ripe, the feel just right. Just short of lush but full.

Viña Bisquertt 2008 La Joya Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon (Colchagua Valley)
- Best Buy
- $13
Liberally oaked, thus there’s sawdust and spice to accent the berry fruit aromas. Tannic and full-bodied, and tasting of roasted black fruits with a generous sprinkling of baking spices. Chunky, tannic and arguably a little saucy/soupy on the finish. Best if you like big, roasted, chubby wines.
