Great value wine for the table that ticks all the boxes in terms of viticulture and vinification. An even-split blend of familiar grapes, the 2024 iteration of this cuvée has been made infusion style, with a mix of both crushed and whole bunches macerated in the direct-press juice for about 10 days - leaving the finished wine even lighter than previous vintages with beautifully bright, crunchy fruit.

The emphasis is here is all on freshness and fruit. There's a bit of all the grapes' key-characteristics coming through: savoury Malbec, herbaceous Cab Franc, red-fruited Merlot and plummy, spicy Cab Sauv.

A belter of a wine c locking in under £20.
