$9 is a steal

For $9, this wine is a steal. We bought this at a lovely little wine shop in Old Town Alexandria, VA a few weeks ago. The proprietor suggested it as a great Malbec under $10. We left with several others, including this one! I'm happy with this wine.

$9

Soft & lush with a seductive garnet color. With an aroma of cool earth and ripe berries, the tjammy flavor pairs beautifully with red meat. There are also notes of dark chocolate and coffee beans.

I had another glass of this wine last night and I really do like it. Going to have to keep my eyes open for it in the future. If you see it, give it a try.
