A Best Buy |
| The quality of Cabernet Sauvignon in Argentina is stronger than ever, and many examples, including this one from Trapiche, offer incredible value. Look for rich black currant, vanilla and mocha in this wine and pair it with hearty beef or mushroom dishes featuring garlic and rosemary. |
