Founded in 1883, Trapiche is one of Argentina's leading wineries, twice winning 'Argentine Wine Producer of the Year' at the International Wine & Spirit Competition. Every year, winemaker Daniel Pi features just three Malbecs from over 90 separate vineyards to feature in the premium Single Vineyard Range.
The grapes for this majestic example were hand-harvested from Cristina and Bibiana Coletto's 60-year-old ungrafted vines, planted at 1,127 metres in Tupungato. Vinified in small, open fermenters and matured for 18 months in new French oak, Daniel says it is "the freshest and most fluid of the Terroir series".
A wine of riveting intensity and finesse, it will cellar well for many years to come – though it is also drinking well now. Pour and enjoy wonderful aromas of spice, lavender, vanilla and cigar box. Taste and experience a decadent lushness, with ripe black fruit, graphite minerality and spice. This is superb.

Campo de Borja, the 'Kingdom of Garnacha', is "the source of some of the best value wines from Spain, if not the world" (John Radford, Decanter).
Its reputation has been built on the success of its low-yielding Garnacha old bush vines – and the extraordinary value of its patiently aged reds. So we are delighted to present to you the velvety, 6-year-old Ermita de San Lorenzo Gran Selección 2018, winner of four Golds, one Double Gold and two Silver medals!
This luscious red was made using fruit from decades-old vines at the 500-year-old Bodegas Ruberte, in a region that was established thanks to the vine planting of medieval Cistercian monks. (It's highly likely that Romans planted vines before that!) 60% of the wine is Garnacha from vines planted in 1958. The balance is Cabernet Sauvignon, which adds classic cassis character and structure to the spicy, raspberry rich Garnacha. Today, after a meticulous 6 years in oak, it's rich and gloriously mellow and drinking perfectly – as all those glittering medals show. It's a beautiful food wine, the perfect match to a grand lamb roast.
Order the dozen and receive 3 FREE 250ml cans of 91-point Old Vine Garnacha from Spain's Calatayud region; order the half dozen and receive 1 FREE can. Old vines have yielded intense flavours of dark cherry, raspberry and chocolate, making it a favourite of judges with a Gold and a Silver medal to its name. All that captured in a pretty can – perfect for picnics!
As Robert Parker says, "Spain leads the world for sensational wine bargains of character and soul" and these wines are stunning proof. Only tiny quantities are available, so don't miss out. Order yours now!
