Christian le Sommer (ex Ch\u00e2teau Latour) is in charge of the winemaking. This is South American wine in a revolutionary style that is altogether more appetising than the norm; characterised by top quality Malbec from excellent terroir, which is given further elegance and complexity through blending with Cabernet Sauvignon. The combination produces a voluptuous, refined wine with\u00a0a harmonious balance between the wine\u2019s Argentine identity and its Bordeaux style.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Pricing:<\/strong><\/h3>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>\u00a3125 per 6 &#8211; In Bond <\/strong><\/h3>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>\u00a0\u00a3140 per 6 &#8211; Duty Paid (ex VAT)\u00a0<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.leaandsandeman.co.uk\/wine\/2012-CARO-Bodegas-Caro-22190-00.html?category=623\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-14378 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/blog-2207a.kxcdn.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/Order-button.png\" alt=\"Order-here\" width=\"85\" height=\"37\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Please reply to this email if you would like to place an order &#8211; or contact your usual Lea &amp; Sandeman contact.
