Mauricio Lorca Lirico Tannat Reserve 2019
Market Price
To show you the value you're getting as an Angel...
We regularly benchmark a selection of our wines against up to three comparable wines on the market. The Market Price is based on the price of those wines.
What do we mean by benchmark? We taste them blind against our own wines, or we use our market knowledge (over 40 years between us) to set an industry standard Market Price.
If you buy one of our wines and disagree with the Market Price, or it's not your cup of tea, we'll add a credit to your account. For more info, see our FAQS.

About the wine
The stylish big red Argentine Reserve that everyone needs to get to know
- Tannat is an up-and-comer that's been making some serious waves in recent years. Take this as your sign to get in early doors before you can't find a bottle for love nor money! If you're fond of a Cab Sav or Cab Franc but looking to dial things up a notch or two, you'll just love this.
- From the ultra desirable Uco Valley in Mendoza, renowned for it's high altitude vineyards complete with rich ancient soil, Mauricio hand picked the 100% Tennat grapes to make this Reserve. When you hear 'Mauricio' and 'quality grapes' in one sentence, you know good things will shortly follow.
- This is a bountiful red fruited beauty, chockablock with lip-smacking flavours of rich cherries and black plums, all alongside tart tannins and a fiendishly long finish. Once you've sunk your teeth into this you won't be looking back.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Mauricio Lorca
- Many years ago Mauricio was all set to go to medical school and become a doctor. Then fate stepped in. A winemaking tutor came to give a talk, and he was hooked. It was a tricky conversation he had with his mum when he went home that night.
- Fast forward 20 years. After earning international acclaim making 96 Parker Point wines for some of Argentina’s world-famous brands, Mauricio’s talent is now in such demand he advises top Argentinian wineries, as well as making spectacular Argentine wines exclusively for Angels. He did Ma Lorca proud, after all.
- Thanks to Angel funding, Mauricio’s hand-crafted nectar is a million miles from supermarket roulette. He controls every step, from pruning to pressing, fermenting, bottling and storage. You can taste the pride and passion in every sip. And thanks to your investment his wines are getting better every year.
