Mauricio Lorca Gran Reserva Malbec 2022
About the wine
Mauricio's masterpiece: a Gran Reserva Malbec that delivers more, more, more...
-
Even though Mauricio Lorca’s regular Malbecs had already made him a star with Angels, he wanted to take things to the next level and make something truly special for you.
-
He harvested Malbec from his very own old-vine vineyards in the heart of the world-famous Uco Valley, and gave them the Gran Reserva treatment with 12 months ageing in oak barrels, to make a wine that’s darker, more luxurious and more complex than anything he’s made for you before.
-
Dark in colour with intense plum and cherry flavours and a big hit of oaky deliciousness, with hints of dark chocolate, vanilla and peppery spice – it goes down smooth, but it’s so special you’re gonna want to take your time with this one.

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.
