I shall take up of this challenge good knight and play your Trivento Malbec with a cheeky little number from the th'asda stable.
It won the best in the world in the under £15 section.
You may weep when you taste it and this is perfectly normal.
The price has increased @£5.75 for the moment which May or May not be due to my good ladies no nonesense rhetoric and fine Britisher stoichsism that defines us as the bedrock of modern day civilizations.You need us more than we need you and the worlds shall be our oyster.
This Malbec is derived from the foothills of Chilly and not a Le sniff of a eurozone.
We shall drink Malbec whilst Brussels fiddles.

I tried getting into red wine, it's not for me though. I even joined Laithwaites wine club sampling some of their quality small vineyard bottles of(mostly) reds. Ordering a dozen bottles from them worked out a very reasonable average of £6-50 a bottle. Bigfoot reckons the same quality from a supermarket is £12 plus and she's a wine connoisseur.

Good Malbec is clearly of Argentinean pedigree (unless Bravo ups his game and Sanchez signs, in which case Chile is allowed in the 'honourable mention' category?)
Anyway, I shall give this a try, even though you quote Asda and the Mirror. However, I fear your challenge is destined to failure.

I was never a red wine drinker until I spent an extended time in France. Just takes a while for your palate to convert from Lager. Once done, there's no going back

Mr Mania. You make a good case, and I will certainly be giving it a try.
However, just because somebody says something, doesn't make it so (I refer you to the Agenda thread!!!). Think of all the "best in the world" youngsters utd have proclaimed to produce as an example.

Your quoting of the alcohol % is a faux pas and results in immediate disqualification.
