Smooth OperatorLustroso Tempranillo 2023 13.5%
With a name like Lustroso, you'd expect it to arrive in a velvet smoking jacket, carrying a single red rose and whispering sweet nothings. Thankfully, it's a bottle of wine. Tempranillo is known for red berries and spice, although these are general grape characteristics, not confirmed tasting notes for this bottle. An excellent candidate for an evening in, a lively dinner or a romantic meal where you've remembered the wine but forgotten the candles. All the romance, none of the awkward small talk.
Why is it a Bargain?
The price has clearly been on a crash diet. Unlike the rest of us, it's actually stuck to it. Actual discount reason to be confirmed.

Hugh Grant
Charming, mischievous and effortlessly smooth when it matters, with dry humour and romantic swagger. A playful comparison, not an endorsement.
