I purchased two bottles, a Reserve Muga Rioja, and looking for something versatile, I went to my all time favorite versatile grape - Malbec. We didn't end up doing BYOB at lunch, but brought this baby home to enjoy.

The Grade: I give this one an A+ I really love this wine. I only wish I tried this wine with some food, I think it would have rocked. Amazing value at under $25 - if you get a chance you should try this wine - especially if you are a fan of Malbec. If you aren't a fan - this wine may convert you! Enjoy!
