A Best Buy |
| Trapiche has been making wine since the 1800s, at which time they were already winning awards in Paris. This comparatively fresh-faced Malbec is grown in selected vineyards located in San Carlos, Uco Valley, at 1,050 m above sea level. Look for ripe red fruit, mint and balsamic notes and pour the wine alongside grilled red meats at your next backyard barbecue. |
