The group was based in Paris, France, consisting of musicians Eduardo Makaroff (Argentinian), Philippe Cohen Solal (French) and Christoph H. Müller (Swiss).THE WINESKATE'S WINE:Phulia 'Desvirttuado' Loureiro White 2021Lima, Vinho Verde, PortugalPhulia are risk takers and love to subvert the norm - hence their Desvirttuado brand - meaning 'distorted' or 'misrepresented'. Here they have aged Loureiro, which is very uncommon in the Vinho Verde, to create something very unique!Although very uncommon to do so, Loureiro has excellent ageing potential, with its ability to still retain its freshness, fruitiness and florality (is that a word?) The wine is made from a combination of 50% aged in barrel and 50% aged in steel, both for 1 year. Then the bottle is allowed to age another year before it can be drunk.DALLAS' WINE:Bodegas Lopez Vasco Viejo Malbec, 2020Mendoza, ArgentinaA medium-bodied wine with surprising depth and savory notes for its modest price.

Organically farmed.DAVE'S WINE:Zuccardi "Concreto" Malbec, 2021Uco Valley, Argentina100% Malbec aged in pure, uncoated concrete.The 2021 Concreto Malbec has to be one of the finest vintages of this wine despite its youth.
