What to Expect

Malbec's origins as a blending grape and the core of the sometimes rustic wines of Cahors are quickly becoming forgotten as the grape becomes solidly associated with Argentina. A heat-loving variety of grape, it has always struggled to ripen in France. While still capable of producing a full-bodied rich wine, the tannins in these were formidable. In warmer climates the tannins are able to ripen fully, yielding rich, velvety wines packed with black spice notes and dark berry fruit.

While stocks last. Due to supplier increases this wine will be increasing to £9.99 once current stocks are exhausted. Only 20 cases available at this price! 14%abv. The Benegas wines from winemaker Frederico Benegas Lynch are all very good. The reds in particular are outstanding thanks in part to consultant winemaker Michel Rolland of Bordeaux fame. This is a powerful wine with intense fruit and sweet tannins with superb length. Lovely on it's own but even better paired with roast beef, or after dinner with some strong cheese. Benegas Website
