What are the chances that my favorite inexpensive Cab would share my name?
No, not Guru, I’m talkin’ “Ed”
Ed Edmundo Cabernet Sauvignon 2019 is an amazing value.
You might find a better cab, but I guarantee you’ll pay a lot more than $9.99. For under $10, this full-bodied cab goes great with steak, bbq ribs and prime rib. It’s available at Total Wine for this price. Yep, that’s right, no coupon, Groupon or secret code word needed.
Red, rich and intense, “Ed” has flavors of dried cherry, plum, black currant and vanilla.
Internationally acclaimed wine critic James Suckling gives Ed Edmundo Cabernet Sauvignon 2019 a 91 rating (based on a 100 point scale) and reviews it this way: “Sweet black fruit, black olives and a leafy accent. Ripe, fleshy dark fruit with soft tannin, leading to a spicy finish. Drink now. ”
Produced in the Mendoza region, well known for its delicious Malbecs, Ed Edmundo is a terrific value.
The Mendoza region, which encompasses 62,500 acres of vines, has more than 1,200 wineries. Mendoza is situated on a high-altitude plateau at the edge of the Andes Mountains. It’s a semi arrid desert region and the winemakers have developed a phenomenal irrigation system.
By the way, if you want a superb Malbec at an excellent price, the Trapiche Broquel Malbec priced at $15.99 at Total Wine is a great value as well.
Ah yes, did somebody say we’re having churrasco tonight?
