Description:
Altos las Hormigas only produce Malbec and have in a short space of time built a reputation as one of Mendoza's top five producers of this variety. The Altos Las Hormigas Malbec has a fabulously intense colour, a floral nose with wild violets and spice that gives way to a smooth and rich fruit on the palate that is nicely balanced by a firmness on the finish. The vineyards are situated in Lujàn de Cuyo, one of Mendoza’s premier growing areas. The estate was created by Alberto Antonini and Antonio Morescalchi following their first trip to Argentina in 1995, and is now regarded as one of the best producers of Malbec in Mendoza. (12 x 75 cl)

Botalcura EL DELIRIO Reserva Syrah Malbec Chile
Description: Vina Botalcura is the result of the passion of two men. Chilean partner, Juan Fernando Waidele, was seduced by the charm of the town of Botalcura and its environs, and this is where the idea to build a winery started. Juan Fernando then met enologist Philippe Debrus, who had a strong desire to return to a hands-on approach to winemaking, a style he learned in his native France when he was young. The winery is named after the town it is based in, Botalcura, near Talca, about 3 hours south of Santiago, in the coastal mountain range that forms the Maule Valley. Additionally, the word Botalcura means Large Stone in Mapundungun, the language of the Mapuche people of southern Chile. The gapes, sourced in Maule and the Central Valley, are hand-picked into half-ton bins and undergo cluster selection on the vine, with leaf removal. Here great care is taken and illustrated in the harvest taking place only in the morning hours to keep the fruit cool. Finally 30% of the wine spent six months in one and two year old oak barrels before release. This wine showcases the synergy between these two great varieties. The Syrah lends grip and structure, while the Malbec provides color, aromatic complexity, and voluptuous body. The result is a remarkably intense, fruity, and voluminous wine, while it has been barrel aged to complement the grape flavours. This blend of Syrah 65% and Malbec 35% is a medium-deep ruby red colour, with dark red cherry highlights. Displaying attractive aromas of ripe blackberry and black cherry, with notes of violets, oak, black pepper, nutmeg and vanilla the broad palate leads to a round, mouth-filling middle, with good soft tannins. Very elegant, with approachable balance, nice alcohol and acid balance. (12 x 75 cl) Price: £90.73
