Argentinian Wine

Ultra fresh, Organic Torrontés Chardonnay with 'Fairtrade' status to boot! Produced in Argentina's oldest winemaking province: Famatina Valley.

Subtle and mineral, this is a pure-textured Pinot Grigio made from grapes grown at 1,100m high in the luminous Andes mountains.

A great introduction to Argentina's signature varietal from classic Mendoza province. Made from mature vines in the cool Andean foothills.

A real thirst quencher! This intense, yet delicate 'Fairtrade' Pinot Gris comes from Argentina's own viticultural paradise: the Famatina Valley.

Medium and lively ruby, this wine is juicy and with high concentration of fruit on the palate. The flavours of blackberries, ripe cherries and plums are ripe and pure – characteristic of this high-altitude valley – and enhanced by a tiny, yet tasty, sweet spicy note! Tannins are soft and well-integrated. Perfect as an aperitif or with a cheese platter, this wine would also accompany pasta dishes in hearty tomatoe sauce as well as the local empanada or any fondant choco cake. The wine carries with it the Fairtrade status as an additional bonus, and each bottle produced has helped create work and thus improve quality of life for over 2,000 families in this region.

A refreshing and scented Torrontes grown at high altitude in La Rioja province, in Argentina.

A purely textured Cabernet Sauvignon grown in prestigious Vista Flores terroir, in the Uco Valley - herat of Mendoza wine country.

Vibrant, dark purple-red, with ripe, red cherries, plum fruit and notes of spicy liquorice. Full and well-structured on the palate, with elegant, soft tannins and ripe black fruit balanced by a spicy oak and a delicate, vanilla and chocolate finish. Delicious!

Full bodied, yet elegant Cabernet from Argentina's classic winemaking region Mendoza. A serious wine, offering unbeatable value for money.

Pioneering winery Ruca Malen deliver an intense and luscious wine, one of the very few examples of 100% Petit Verdot in Argentina

A delicate blend of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay grapes grown at high altitude in the Andean foothills, which combines a creamy texture and lingering freshness. Rich, complex and fruity, this classically styled sparkler offers a great insight to the potential of Mendoza's terroir.

Intense jet-ruby in colour, this has a fresh nose, redolent of fresh berries, blended with rose, violet and wild herbs. There is a hint of citrus, accentuating a sense of focus. The palate is silken and beautifully rounded, rich in plump primary fruit underscored by earthy minerals and heady floral aromatics – a very complete Mendoza Malbec, well-balanced with layered complexity, fruit enhanced by mocha richness.

This is a premium example of Argentina's signature grape, made by boutique winery Bodega Ruca Malen. A moreish Malbec combining power and elegance, supple tannins and a persistent finish - well-suited to the larger format. Highly drinkable, this is one to share.

Jet-plum, essentially opaque and clinging to the glass, this reveals a spicy array of red and black fruit, cherries and berries on the nose, allied to rather savoury, mushroom notes, juniper, pepper - rather hedonistic. The palate reflects the aromatic character of the nose with additional floral notes. Layered and complex, supple and opulent, this is a very fine Quimera, supported by refined, ripe, rather noble tannins. The aim for Quimera is perfection. This is what they refer to as their Bordeaux blend and although less often seen, Malbec does constitute one of the Bordeaux varietals. Two vines are required to make one bottle of Quimera. The wine is fermented in tank before being blended and transferred to oak barrel for malolactic fermentation and 12 months’ ageing. The barrels are 40% new and 60% one year old.

Dark fruit and earthy notes prevail on the nose yet the palate leans more towards the red fruit spectrum, the texture silken and supple. This is generous and bright with hints of citrus - orange zest providing an extra dimension - dark chocolate and espresso, layered with fruit and directed by a well-integrated tannic structure through to a very rich, elegant finish.

Deep ruby-garnet, this offers almost white wine aromatics, complementing attractive primary fruit, summer pudding berries and cherries. Wonderfully fresh and enticing, appetising and upbeat, the palate is light and airy - rather lovely in fact with precision and focus through to a crescendo on the finish – stunning.
