Mendoza, ArgentinaSecond time around and no substantial changes. Look for bright blueberry/cassis fruit with soft round tannins. 1884 spends eight months in 100 percent French oak, adding a bit of toast and spice while softening the edges of what is a savoury, dry red made for grilled meats. If you are a cabernet sauvignon fan, this delivers solid value in a ready-to-drink cabernet.Tasted: 24 July 2018Tasted by: Prices:

Mendoza, ArgentinaThis is a big, ripe, richer wine, swelled by the UV rays and sun-swelled time afforded this high altitude grapes, tucked into the foothills of the Andes. This gained structure through eight months in French oak, lending cedar spicing to the compact black and red fruit. Plump plum, raspberry, rasped pepper and prickles of green thorns, all housed by sticky tannins, make this ready to open now, alongside fired beef.Tasted: 24 July 2018Tasted by: Prices:

Mendoza, ArgentinaArgentine cabernet sauvignon ripens most years, giving the wine a base of bright blueberry/cassis fruit with soft round tannins. 1884 spends some eight months in 100 percent French oak adding a bity of toast and spice while softening the edges of what is a savoury red made for grilled meats. If you are a cabernet sauvignon fan you must like the value here. Ready to drink.Tasted: 21 November 2017Tasted by: Prices:
