I'm loving my malbecs. I started with Cahors but Argentina delivers brilliant value. Thanks, Julian. I’m loving my malbecs. I started with Cahors but Argentina delivers brilliant value.

If anyone wants to give a really generous present of the Speri Malbec, I have a couple of wooden boxes-of-six here at the Wine Depot, which Alessandro sent on our last order to see if they might appeal. They're nailed shut through metal straps, and look as though they might contain grenades or flares instead of wine, which is kinda cool (for want of a better expression). I agree about the NZ Pinot Noir: just the job. Thanks for recommending one of ours!
