Tenebres review - Trader Joes - great value!

Tenebres is a GSM blend, which means it is made from Grenache, Syrah, and Mourvedre grapes. It comes from the Languedoc region of France, where the climate is ideal for these varieties. This wine appears to be a Trader Joe's exclusive.

Review

The wine was fruity and smooth, with a hint of 'candy apple' as one of us noticed. It had a nice balance between sweetness and acidity, and very soft tannins that did not interfere with the fruitiness. It was a bargain for the price, and a great example of how a cheap red wine can be enjoyable and well-made.

This was undoubtedly one of the best value wines tasted to date. Its dense yet smooth composition would satisfy more expensive tastes.

Earning 4 out of 5 stars, the Tenebres wine from Trader Joe's sets a high bar for quality and price at $6.99 a bottle. Smooth, easy drinking and delicious. It succeeded where many cheaper wines fail by not compromising on character or structure. This wine delivers big tastes customers will savor glass after glass. 4/5.
