Don Miguel Gascon, Mendoza (Argentina) “Colosal” Red Blend

 2012 ($15, Gascon USA): The name says it all.  This blend of Malbec, Bonarda, Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon delivers subtly sweet, almost jammy, ripe black fruit flavors enveloped with plush tannins that results in a soft and forward wine.  Good by itself, it would also work well with robust fare.
