Luján de Cuyo, Northern Region, Mendoza, ArgentinaLuigi Bosca has continued to push the envelope, bringing a sense of style to their wine while still speaking Mendoza. Sangre is a selection of the best blocks in their Los Nobles, Las Compuertas, and El Paraiso vineyards in Maipu. Shallow soil and extravagant temperature change between day and night confers an electricity on the 90-year-old vines. It is aged for 14 months in new oak, bringing a spicy undercurrent to this rich, black fruited red, finishing ripe, long, and warm. A solid everyday red you can serve confidently to a crowd of red wine lovers.Tasted: 22 March 2023Tasted by: Prices:

Luján de Cuyo, Northern Region, Mendoza, ArgentinaThe de Sangre Malbec comes off Luján de Cuyo's Las Compuertas, Vistalba, and Agrelo vineyards, at 960m average altitude. The destemmed fruit was fermented in stainless prior to moving to oak barrels for 1 years' rest. Black plum, black cherry, tobacco, and thorns flood a juicy palate, wrought with firm, sinewy, ferrous-dusted tannins which take this full bodied wine to an espresso finish. Certainly one for the grill, and roast beef / root veg.Tasted: 11 April 2023Tasted by: Prices:
