Mauricio Lorca Gran Opalo blend – characterful Argentine red blend
Mauricio Lorca Gran Opalo blend is a carefully crafted Argentine red wine that offers a harmonious balance of varietal and terroir-driven character. It opens with a deep, intense colour and generous aromas of ripe black berries, plum and subtle spice. Barrel ageing adds elegant notes of vanilla, cocoa and a hint of toast, enriching the overall profile.
On the palate it is round and silky, with well-integrated tannins and lively, yet not overpowering acidity. The structure is fuller than medium-bodied, with a long, layered finish where the fruity and spicy notes linger pleasantly. Its structure and concentration make it suitable for further ageing, while still offering plenty of enjoyment when opened young.
Serving suggestions and food pairing
Mauricio Lorca Gran Opalo blend is an excellent choice alongside rich, flavourful dishes. It pairs well with roast beef and lamb, spicier red meat dishes, grilled vegetables and mature, characterful cheeses. Thanks to its complexity, it is ideal for festive occasions, dinner parties with friends or long, relaxed evenings of conversation.
The recommended serving temperature is 16–18 °C. Before serving, it is worth decanting briefly or opening the bottle in advance to allow the aromas to fully unfold.
Who is it for?
This blend is for those who enjoy characterful yet elegant red wines and are curious about the style of Argentina’s wine regions. It also works well as a gift: its flavour profile is approachable for a wide audience, yet complex enough to capture the interest of experienced wine lovers.
Mauricio Lorca Gran Opalo blend is a red wine that reflects careful vineyard work and thoughtful winemaking, delivering a balanced, harmonious experience in every glass.
