Malbec is a popular red wine grape variety that originated in France but has found its true home in Argentina. Known for its deep color and rich flavors, Malbec typically features notes of dark fruit, such as blackberry and plum, along with hints of chocolate and spice. It pairs well with grilled meats and hearty dishes, making it a favorite among wine enthusiasts. In Argentina, Malbec has become the flagship grape, thriving in the high-altitude vineyards of Mendoza. The unique terroir contributes to its bold character and smooth tannins, making it a staple in many wine collections around the world.
