Where It's From

Region / Mendoza

View more wines from Mendoza

Mendoza is Argentina's biggest wine region, and with a footprint that spans a diverse geography, it's able to produce a wide array of wines. Chief amongst them are Argentina's ever-popular Malbecs, but you'll also find world-class Cabernet Sauvignons, Chardonnays, and more produced here. The geography is diverse, but tends to be mountainous, and the higher elevations play a sizable role in grape growing, providing cooler temperatures at night.

Country / Argentina

View more wines from Argentina

Argentina took the wine world spotlight in the late 20th century with its plush, smooth Malbec. While the popular red grape still reigns supreme, Argentine wineries are increasingly putting forth excellent examples of multiple varietals, all at the extraordinary bargains that make this region so accessible.

Now the fifth largest wine-producing nation in the world, Argentina enjoys high-altitude and low-humidity vineyard sites, comparatively unencumbered by insects and disease. Argentina’s unique terroir has captured the interest of such internationally celebrated winemakers as Paul Hobbs and Michel Rolland, both of whom have projects in the country.

With a floral, slate and peppery-herb cast to the concentrated dried cherry and plum paste flavors that lengthen nicely around a gentle push of fresh acidity, this red ends on a toast note, showing hints of chocolate. Drink now through 2034. 100,000 cases made, 18,000 cases imported. (Aaron Romano)

An easy and fruity malbec with some strawberries and sweet cherries. Juicy and medium-bodied on the palate with some red fruit and chewy tannins. Short but drinkable. Drink now. (Zekun Shuai)

The 2021 Malbec The Apple Doesn’t fall Far From The Tree is a blend of grapes from Gualtallary in the Uco Valley and Perdriel in Luján de Cuyo, Mendoza and was fermented with native yeasts. Purple in the glass. The compelling, pure nose presents notes of violet and lavender with fresh plum and hints of herbs. The easygoing palate is fresh and juicy with refined tannins and a fluid, flavorful flow. An inviting, easy drinking red. (Joaquín Hidalgo)

A nicely juicy and fine-grained malbec with restrained sweet spices, blackberries, blueberries and a hint of graphite. Classic malbec characters with juicy fruit and firm, fine-grained tannins. 50% of the fruit comes from Uco (El Peral, Los Chacayes and Altamira) and 50% from Lujan de Cuyo. Drink now but can hold, too. (Zekun Shuai)
