The ultimate cellar defender, if you haven't gotten on the Colossal bandwagon, now is the time! Ranked #1 by Wine Spectator for "Wineries for Value," the Colossal Reserva Red is also the highest scoring wine, currently being sold under $10, in the past 10 vintages! Made by Casa Santos Lima, who also makes one of the most popular wines at The Wine Buyer: Confidencial. One of Portugal's most famous winemakers Jose Neiva Correia crafts Colossal, a blend of Touriga Nacional, Syrah & Tempranillo. Tasted blind, you would think this is a $25 California Cabernet Sauvignon, with ripe red fruit aromas, soft tannins, balanced acidity and a subtle oak spice on the finish.
"Big, bold and spicy, living up to its name, this is a powerful wine influenced by the rich Alicante Bouschet in the blend. The wine has weight, concentration and further aging potential. Drink from 2022. Editor's Choice." The Wine Enthusiast, 91 Points
