    This Salta Malbec is funky up front, with gamy aromas of earthy black fruits. Bold acidity is a touch blaring, so the palate is lively but also scattered. Said acidity makes for forward plum and berry flavors, while this tastes of coffee and baked berry fruits on a finish that’s slightly hot and aggressive; drink through 2022

Most distinguished and celebrated from Argentina’s Mendoza, Malbec has seen runaway success since the early 2000s. Mendoza’s agreeable, continental climate with hot, dry summers and cold snowy winters allows the perfect conditions for growing outstanding Malbec. This grape is easy to like for its lusty, deep flavors and aromas of blackberry, plum, red cherry, autumn spice and tilled earth. It’s easy to find delicious, fruit-driven, affordable everyday examples and in prices beyond, quite exceptional ones with dense, supple textures that make them capable of aging.
