Viña Santa Maria 2009 Bonarda (Mendoza)
- Best Buy
- $13
Earthy, rich and dry to begin with, and also a tiny bit herbal. The palate is firm, slightly rough and tannic, but as a whole this is a very tasty wine with bold black cherry and blackberry flavors. Finishes quick and easy, and overall it’s likable and further proof that Bonarda from Mendoza can complement Malbec.

Viña Santa Maria 2009 Malbec (Mendoza)
- Best Buy
- $10
Shows a warm, baked bouquet with black fruit, licorice and toasty aromas. The palate, however, is high in acid, thus it churns and burns as it’s offering bright, sheer berry flavors. Crisp and a little hot on the finish, but with good overall flavors and enough solidity to make it a value.

Viña Santa Maria 2009 Torrontés (Mendoza)
- Online Exclusive
- $10
Yellow in color, with oxidized aromas along with a hint of lemon and butterscotch. The palate is heavy while the flavors are bland and suggest bitterness. Does not show this grape in a very positive light.
