A joint venture founded in 1999 between Argentina's Catena family and France's Rothschild family, Bodegas Caro has a reputation for producing elegant, Bordeaux-inspired expressions of Malbec and Cabernet Sauvignon from its high-altitude Mendoza vineyard sites. This Majestic-exclusive Malbec is fermented and aged in steel tanks to preserve the fruit-driven freshness. Dark purple in the glass, it shows restraint on the nose, and then deep, dark, concentrated blackcurrant and plum fruit, with a touch of violet. Super-drinkable, and a steal at the mix-six price of £12.99.
