Tupungato region of the Uco Valley in Mendoza. An appealing pale pink, it is a blend of Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris, Syrah and a touch of Viognier. Crisp and refreshing, with zippy acidity and lovely fresh, red berry fruit with a lemon and lime hint. Fabulous summer sipping.

Typical pale ruby red, it has delicious red cherry fruit, soft tannins and considerable complexity, helped by 6 to 8 months maturation in French oak. Fresh, balancing acidity and medium body gives a wine perfect for summer food pairing, from salmon quiche to chicken salad or char-grilled Mediterranean vegetables. \u00a314.50 from Vintage Roots.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"Markup__ParagraphWrapper-sc-13q6ywe-0 Markup__ParagraphWrapperInews-sc-13q6ywe-1 hqSJcf gqFwNZ markup \">\n<p>And now for a big wine for big barbecue flavours.
