History
Wines of origin, expertly sourced and blended by Ehrmanns. The 'Made in' range explores some of the key wine-making regions of the world and features wines carefully selected for their provenance and varietal typicity.
Regional Information
The grapes for this wine come from the upper Lujan (Agrelo, Urgeteche) lower valle de Uco, around 800 to 900 meters above sea level. Mendoza is in the rain shadow of the Andes mountains and the climate is semi desert with little rain which provides a good climate for disease-free grapes and minimal spraying.

2019/2020
Vinification Details
The grapes are hand picked into 400kg bins early in the morning and transported to the winery where they are crushed and destemed into 10 ton fermenters. Selected yeasts are added and fermented for 10 days at 28°C. We remontage the fermenters 5 times a day for 10 minutes to keep the cap constantly moist and cool to avoid extracting aggressive tannins. The wine is then racked to remove solids and sent to tanks to undergo malolactic fermentation.

Pleasantly surprised.

I was given this wine by Ocado to try and review I was surprised at how I could taste the plum and chocolate notes. It’s smooth and not to heavy to drink.

Very drinkable

I was given this wine by Ocado to try and review and was very pleasantly surprised. It was very drinkable with undertones of liquorice and blackcurrant. Its on special offer at the moment and very good value. I will definitely buy in the future.

Needs to breathe

I’m reviewing this product because I got a free sample from Ocado. We received both this and the organic version. In balance, we all preferred the organic, the wine had a smoother aftertaste. Both wines need to breathe though, so give them an hour open before you pour.

Pleasantly surprised!

I was offered this product in exchange for a review. It has a very light pleasant flavour not sour or bitter like some wine. Distinct taste and good quality wine. Lovely !

Swig\-able!

I was asked to review this wine by Ocado. A good week night plonk, reasonably fruity but lacked body. I prefer something less acidic and rounded.
