Seemingly has one of those strange European names that pervades Argentine culture.
Mendoza sounds like a place I would enjoy: ranches, dusty mountain ranges, red meat by the bucket full and a copious supply of muscular red wines.
This one seems to be exclusive to The Wine Society. It's mix of 35% cabernet sauvignon, 40% malbec and 25% merlot is new to me but it's one of like to see more of. The malbec may responsible for the freshness and hint of violets on the nose. The other two have a claret like feel to them. I'd guess this would be totally overpowering in its youth but it's very well balanced now.
Very hard to see these characteristics replaced elsewhere for less than its £7.80 price tag.
