    I am trying to decide whether to purchase a few cases. You think it would be safe to have some bottles up to a year or more before they are opened?

      Hello FreeRadical!

      I would NOT go that route. I have never seen these two wines in a sold-out state at Trader Joes. They are always available. Also, these wines tend to change as they are bottled in separate runs. So, I would go get 6 bottles at a time. Enjoy them (or not and but no more), and keep the max bottle count per purchase to that number. stocking up on these are not worth the pain, you will get the freshest bottles – as they move through them but always seem to have stock.

      The Chardonnay on the other hand – does indeed sell out, and quickly at that. That wine, when it re-appears, and if it is as good as the 2012 – could be worth getting some, but more than 10 at a time is not a good idea, unless you drink through them quickly (like daily consumption)

      I agree that many of their wines are better than the baseline herzog wines fro sure. That said, you can get other wines for 10+ bucks that are better, when on sale.

    Loved the white and red. Def better than most 10 dollar kosher wines.

      Hello Rita! Which red wine did you like the Malbec, Tempranillo, or Cabernet?

  6. […] that may well be their best ever. Sadly, the 2014 Terrenal Tempranillo is not as good as past vintages, like the 2012. But with the very impressive Chard, Cab, and Banero, the Tempranillo is not such a loss. The […]
