Description
Argentina: Mendoza
Fresh & Juicy Red
Light-Bodied - Unoaked
Vegan - ABV 9.5% - 75.0cl
In a Nutshell:
Bright, juicy Malbec with all the flavour you'd expect - just dialled back a notch on the alcohol.
The Lowdown:
Think Malbec but with a lighter step. It's full of ripe strawberries, cherries and blueberries, as you'd expect, but at just 9.5% every bit as satisfying as the usual Mendoza reds. The secret ingredient is Ancellotta - a little-known variety that deepens the colour and adds a touch of darker berry character. Bright and unoaked, it's a modern take on an Argentine red that's all about fruit, lift and drinkability.
The Producer:
Made by the highly regarded Mauricio Lorca who started his career at Argentina's prestigious Catena Zapata winery, followed by stints at Michel Torino in Salta and then as head winemaker at Luigi Bosca in Mendoza. In the early 2000's he set up his own winery in Perdriel a little to the south of Mendoza from where he produces quite a wide range of wines all of which are characteristically well crafted and concentrated, but with real elegance. And the, generally, modest pricing only adds to their appeal.
When to Drink:
Serve lightly chilled. Great with tapas, charcuterie or pizza the bright fruit and acidity cut neatly through the richness.
