Mauricio Lorca Lirico Malbec Syrah 2015
About the wine
Big, bold New World red at a price you can afford
- Big, bold new world red at a price you can afford.... ahhhhh, life is good. And when we say bold, we mean bold with a capital B.
- Mauricio tracked us down and showed us this, amongst other wines, at the London Trade Fair, and we were blown away by the delicious, juicy plum duff flavours that pack a punch and a half. So we bought the lot.
- Think of the biggest, juiciest steak in town - buy it, and serve it with a bottle of this. Cracking.

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.
