Trapiche Vineyards, Mendoza (Argentina) Malbec 2020

 Rich, red and robust, this is a must-have everyday wine.  Some of the world’s finest Malbec comes not from France, but from Argentina, where the climate and terroir seem ideally suited to this grape (Argentina has been growing Malbec since 1883).  Trapiche, one of the country’s largest producers, with about 133 million cases of wine per year, considers Malbec its most important red.  Richly flavored and wonderfully balanced, it is a delicious partner for a variety of foods.  Serve it with meat, cheese and rich pasta dishes such as lasagna.
