I'm making pasta tonight and just popped a nice bottle of malbec, should be a good night in the homefront.
I hope that is American Malbec and not Argentinian. The tariff on South American wines totally throws off the Space ABV/cost ratio.
Argentinian. I think it was $12.99 at Total Wine. Solid but unspectacular. Any American malbecs in particular you recommend? Am I a beer traitor for asking that on this thread?
To be honest, Malbec is one of my least favorite reds to drink (outside of a Bordeaux or other blend). I really don't think anywhere in America has ideal climate for single-varietal Malbec although I'm sure Central Coast Californians will take umbrage to that.
Come back when you have a Pinot, Syrah, or Grenache question, but I'm not our guy on this one.
