Highly Rated Red Wines Under $15

Italy - Tuscany - The pure pulp of black cherry and blackberry, glazed with exquisite spicy sweetness. A wine as consistent as it is very clear in its oenological execution, and with a palatal roundness of supreme fruity ripeness.

France - Redcurrants, red cherries, ceps and white pepper on the nose. Meaty and juicy on the palate, with a medium body, sleek tannins and tasty earthy elements. Drink now. Screw cap.

Argentina - Mendoza - A fresh and pretty tense cabernet sauvignon with plenty of red and black fruit. Still shows some restraint, with a tobacco and olive undertone. Tannins are tight and fine-grained with a juicy mid-palate and a tightly wound finish.
