Jam Shed Malbec is made with grapes sourced from selected vineyards in the hills of Argentina’s famous Mendoza wine region. This Malbec has rich, opulent plum and blackberry flavours, rounded off with a hint of cocoa and vanilla. It’s a seriously delicious red wine that’s jam packed with flavour!. Wine of Mendoza, Argentina. Rich, jammy & smooth.

So this happens to be one of my favourite wines at the moment, warm and full of flavour. At £7 a bottle it’s the most expensive on the shelf, however it a completely drinkable wine.

For me it has a thick warm texture and as the name suggests has a jam feel to it.

If your after a low price tasty wine then I would say go for it.
