  July 30, 2020 - Bought Tesco's UK £8.00 July 2020
  
  Contracted producer for the 2018: Bodegas Y Vinedos Catena
  
  IDP Salta, Argentina.
  
  BLB...." crisp and zingy, citrus, lychee, orange peel."
  
  Crisp and zingy it is, yes some lychee too, couldn't get the orange peel.
  
  Outstanding value for money white wine, attractive lively acidity swirls around solid fruit. Heaps of personality, solid med' body, it's in a dry Foodie style, ripe apples, lychee, grapefruit, tart yellow plum; citrus, lemon drizzled with honey, good length and core power. Is this really only £8.00?
  Be interesting to cellar this - just for a year.
  
  N....lychee, lemon and honey, crushed red apple, rose water; moild aroma, none of this is intense
  
  C....light straw, looks solid med' body
  
  VFM....£8.00 for a 91/100 wine? Not bad. will buy the 2018 again. Feels £12-15.00
