There’s nowhere on the planet that does value for money reds quite like Spain. They’re the absolute kings of bang for buck – put this alongside any Kiwi or Aussie red for $12.99, it’d blown them away!

Cuatro Gatos (Four Cats) is a 4.5 Star, 90/100 rated Spanish Tempranillo (temp-rah-knee-oh) that also got picked as a Buy of the Week in February 2023 by Master of Wine Bob Campbell!

Bob said “Made from grapes grown in Castilla-La Mancha from vines aged from 10 to 25 years old, cultivated at about 500-700m above sea level. Light, fresh and fruity red with violet, vanilla and subtle spicy flavours. Delicious and easy-drinking with appealing purity. A well made wine that is a very good buy at this price ($15)”

NZ Master of Wine Steve Bennett travels the world to find incredible wine bargain for the Kiwi market and he didn’t miss a trick with this one!

Made by the guys at the Navarro Lopez winery – they’re the crowd that make the massively popular Rojo and Arriba. In fact, this wine is incredibly similar to Arriba under another label! For a measly $12.99 this is a serious no brainer. Grab a box or two (make it three and the shipping’s on us!) and quaff away. No rush, Bob reckons while this is highly drinkable now it will cellar for 2-3 years yet.
