Classy Malbec from the heart of Mendoza. In 2004, a group of small producers got together to form Estancia Mendoza as a small co-operative, since when their dedication and commitment has led to global recognition. This 100% Malbec is a wine that ticks a lot of boxes – it’s generous and full flavoured with all manner of dark fruits gathering together, underpinned by gentle oak but with soft tannins and well-balanced acidity. Barbecue wine on steroids!
£29.95
A beautifully balanced and complex Chardonnay, fermented and matured for nine months in 3-year-old French oak barriques. Generous aromas of ripe orchard fruits, floral honey, and toasted nuts.

A rich and almost full-bodied palate with silky tannins from time in barrel. Dark fruits, clove and vanilla spice are followed by earthy forest floor undertones on the finish
