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
Deliciously deep and spicy biodynamic Cab Franc
-
Cab Franc is one of Argentina’s most interesting varieties, with its slow-ripening berries making for exceptionally flavourful wines.
-
Sebastian's is a perfect example. On the nose it’s complex and pure with ripe black and red fruit, and delicate hints of spicy black pepper and grilled sweet red peppers.
-
As it was aged in a mixture of new and old French barrels, you’ll notice a mixture of vanilla, clove and tobacco aromas. The palate has signature Argentinian richness and complexity at its heart, with a delightful long, textured finish.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Sebastian San Martin
- Sebastián San Martín is a name you probably haven’t heard before. But we can bet you have tasted one of his wines. He’s worked for some of the biggest wineries in Argentina like Francois Lurton and Argento, learning top tips from some of the world’s best consultant winemakers along the way.
- After years of being the guy behind the label, Sebastián is thrilled to finally see his name on the bottle. He’s using Angel funding to source grapes from small, family-run vineyards - to show you the ’real’ Malbec. If you’ve only ever drunk mass-produced Malbec that’s been oaked to within an inch of its life, his wines will be a revelation.
- Sebastián says “I’m so enthusiastic. I have so many things in my head about what we can do. There are many things to be discovered in Argentina, it’s a very special place. To have the chance to show these special grapes and places and history at a valuable price is an honour” - the honour is all ours Sebastián.
