This edition of our "great value reds case" is an insane value that you'll be excited to share with your family and friends this holiday season. 

 

Jordanov Vranec (Macedonia) - Vranec (pronounced 'vrah-nahtz') is a red grape native to Macedonia that's closely related to Zinfandel, so if you're a Zin fan it should taste a little familiar! Full body and dry with flavors and aromas of black berries, cherry, and plum with hints of spice.

Giovine "Valerio" Piemonte Rosso (Italy) - A fantastic blend of Nebbiolo, Barbera, Cabernet Merlot and Freisa from one of our favorite producers of incredible value wines in Piemonte. Ripe red fruit with earthy undertones greets you out of the glass. Tasting the wine reveals primary flavors of Bing cherry, forest berries, roses and baking spice ending with a clean finish.

Royal Prince "Slam Dunk" Red Blend (California) - Winemaker Maayan Koschitzky delivers yet another stunning blend with trademark SLAM DUNK style. This wine is powerful and intensely aromatic out of the glass with fragrances of blueberry, boysenberry and black plum. Dense and expansive on the palate, the Petite Sirah and Zinfandel blend reveals lush, generous flavors of black cherry, cedar and sweet tobacco. It shows big, upfront primary fruit while revealing refreshing acidity and a supple, long-lived finish.

Bellevue Touraine Gamay (France) - Domaine Bellevue, located in Noyers-sur-Cher, has been a family-run estate for four generations.  Bellevue's Touraine Gamay is a fresh and easy-to-drink red wine with lots of fruit flavors that go wonderfully with a simple and relaxed meal. Built on aromas of jammy red and black fruits, the palate is supple and tannic structure is present but coated.

Rui Reguinga "Intensus" Tinto (Portugal) - A full bodied red produced with Aragonez, Trincadeira and Alicante Bouschet grown in Portugal's Alentejo region.  Fruity with notes of blackberries and ripe raspberries, as well as light notes of cocoa and toasted tannins.

Broadbent North Coast Cabernet Sauvignon (California) - Sourced from two vineyards in California’s North Coast, grapes (40% from Mendocino County and 60% for Lake County) were harvested in the cool early morning hours and were carefully sorted before undergoing a gentle destemming process. The fruit then underwent a cold soak to extract maximum color and flavor. Fermentation took place in small stainless steel tanks. Following fermentation, the wine was aged for 10 months, in a selection of 80% American and 20% French oak.  Ripe, dark-fruited character with notes of cloves, vanilla, cedar and hint of pine needles. Full-bodied, creamy and luscious, with fine tannins and a deep core of fruit in the middle with a long succulent finish.
