Dry , perfumed and great with food....this could be Italian....another great appropriation from Argentina. Well rounded, fruity with cinammon spice

The perfect steak wine. Made with lower yieldng vines....very concentrated and rich yet subtle and appealing. Ripe plums, spice and mocha

A juicy and fresh (and original) blend of Malbec and Shiraz, this would be great with simple pasta dishes and is light enough to quaff on its own on a warm summer evening.

well structured with great concentration of fruit, fig compote and plums. Spicy vanilla and mocha on the finish

Full bodied and powerful. Deep coloured with concentration. Plums and dried fruits and smoky, vanilla character. Get involved, a shop favourite!

Stunning single vineyard Malbec made from grapes grown at 1100m in the Lujan de Cuyo region of Mendoza.

Bright red in colour with smoky, spicy notes alongside hints of cherry on the nose. The spiciness in continued on the palate with sweet red and dark berry fruit thank lingers on a long finish

Pure Argentinean class in a glass! Mostly Malbec with some support from Cabernets Sauv & Franc, Merlot and even a touch of Petit Verdot, this is medium-modied and elegant with a distinctive mineral quality.

Pure and concentrated Cabernet from Mendoza in Argentina, this estate is really producing high quality wines at an affordable price.

Amazing wine from a family producer who just about manages to keep up with the immense demand for his wine. Fleshy and mouth-filling, but easy to drink, with a black fruit palate that keeps you coming back for more.

This Amarone-style wine is sensational.....A blend of five grape varieties and made with them being dried on tin roofs, this is rich, sweet, spicy, sexy and smooth. One of my Favourites in the shop - James

This is a proper shop favourite (like half of our Malbecs, seemingly). Though soft and easy drinking this is still plump and moreish with good weight for the price.

Cracking value Malbec with a smooth plummy character & a touch of earthiness on the palate.

A more sophisticated interpretation of a classic Malbec. Jammy notes of black fruit and complemented by hints of chocolate and vanilla from 11 months barrel ageing.

Testing only

A big, bold, beast of a Malbec from Argentina. Plenty of fruit with a dark, smoky edge with a hint of vanilla on the finish. It's as if they made it to have with steak.

A rather special Malbec from winemaker extraordinaire Paul Hobbs. Rich and viscous with a haunting violet perfume, the grainy tannins on the palate giving the wine the texture of crushed Parma Violets! Perfect for your finest fillet steak.

Classic Cabernet from Vina Cobos here but without any austerity or tough tannins - this is jovial and easy-going, the gentle acidity and cassis flavours making it very easy to get onto that second glass.

The legendary Paul Hobbs has had a hand in making these wines & this is a beautiful expression of Cabernet Sauvignon. Dark cassis flavour & blackberries with a hint of mint on the finish.

The Italian influence here is pretty self-evident in its namesake - the Italian football league! It continues into the bottle too, the Italian grape Bonarda being utilised with much more success than it is in its homeland. Grippy with lots of red fruit, t
