Lorca LO% Ancellota Malbec, Lorca
Description
Think Malbec but with a lighter step. It's full of ripe strawberries, cherries and blueberries, as you'd expect, but at just 9.5% every bit as satisfying as the usual Mendoza reds. The secret ingredient is Ancellotta - a little-known variety that deepens the colour and adds a touch of darker berry character. Bright and unoaked, it's a modern take on an Argentine red that's all about fruit, lift and drinkability.

Producer Details
Mauricio Lorca did well at school and college and was all set to go to medical school to train to be a doctor until, one day, a group of viticulture students came to give a talk to his year group. Mauricio went home to tell his Mum… I’m going to be a winemaker! What a shock that must have been for proud Mrs Lorca. What a stroke of luck for us.
Today Mauricio Lorca’s talents as a top consultant are very much in demand throughout Argentina, but it’s at home in his own winery in Perdriel, Luján, that his college daydream comes to life with these great wines.
