Mendoza, ArgentinaOver time, Luigi Bosca has made a conscious effort to improve this affordable label's quality, adding to its value as a dependable, go to mid week red. On the other side of 50, the east facing, biodynamically farmed Finca La Linda vines are at their peak. Black plum, blueberries, and black raspberries have a linear edge to mix with a rash of soft tannins, giving this label a gravitas reserved for more expensive wines. It spends a year in French oak to round out the edges, making it a drink now or hold proposition. Perfect with a piece of aged Parmigiano Reggiano, a cassoulet, or grilled root vegetables.Tasted: 18 February 2025Tasted by: Prices:

Mendoza, ArgentinaFrom 4 generations of winemakers, this classic malbec comes off vines averaging 35 years in Luján de Cuyo and Uco Valley, and 900-1100m. After a ferment in stainless, this rests in French oak for one year. Polished and elegant, with crushed blackberries, damson plums, blackberries stretching long on the palate, seasoned with river stones and brightened with mountain acidity. Tannins are well knit, siding this to a warming, through harmonious (especially if partnered with roasted beef) finish.Tasted: 08 March 2025Tasted by: Prices:
