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
Fruity, easy-sipping Syrah from the doorstep of the Andes
- This fresh, fruit-driven Syrah is loaded with refined red fruits matched perfectly with a lean, easy-sipping texture and a punchy, polished finish.
- Thanks to Angel funding, Uco Valley expert Mauricio harvested top-dollar Syrah grapes from a high-elevation vineyard in Argentina's most famous region, to bring you a red that captures the valley’s finest flavors.
- After masterfully blending and fermenting his Syrah, your support even let Mauricio give this wine an extra year of aging in French and American oak to bring out an touch of extra barrel-aged complexity.

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.
