About Malbec
Malbec is a red wine grape variety with a rich history that started in Bordeaux, France. Malbec is widely grown in several regions across the globe, including Argentina, France, and the United States. Known for its full-bodied structure, tannic texture and bold flavors, Malbec often has notes of black fruit, such as blackberries and black cherries, as well as hints of spices, vanilla, and a touch of earthiness. Malbec is a great match for beef, bison or lamb dishes (or even a big juicy hamburger). Its bold flavors also pair well with strong, aged cheeses such as Cheddar, Roquefort, and Stilton Blue. Malbec is best served at room temperature and doesn't require much aging to enjoy. A well-aged Malbec is a popular choice for wine lovers who enjoy rich, fruit-forward, tannic, high alcohol wines.
