Two years ago, I wrote about the Amalgama Red Blend 2013, which I liked and rated at 88 points. Not everyone agreed with me. One reader commented that it was the worst wine he had ever tasted and another blogger rated it much lower than I rated it. Nevertheless, I bought several bottles of the wine and enjoyed every one.
Now, Costco has a large supply of the Amalgama Red Table Wine 2015 priced at $8.99. Since I am noticing a high number of pageviews on my blog about the 2013 Amalgama, there must be some interest in this wine.
Amalgama Red is a blend of 70% Cabernet Sauvignon and 30% Syrah. There is a pleasant aroma of dark fruit in the glass. However, the flavor is somewhat tart and the finish is harsh and spicy. I just do not enjoy this 2015 Amalgama as much as I described two years ago. I do not expect to buy more this time.
SC Wine Joe rating = 87 points
