Argentina
Argentina is starting to assert itself onto the UK market, and prove to wine drinkers at large what enlightened wine industry insiders have known for a while: that it is capable of truly great winemaking and brilliant quality at the lower end of the scale as well.
Argentina has some of the highest vineyards in the world, some as high as 9800 feet up in the Andes. The high altitude is perfect for growing Malbec, Argentina''s signature red grape variety, the warm days and cool nights combined with intense UV light result in perfectly ripe grapes packed with intense flavour. Argentina''s full flavoured red wines, especially Malbec, are wonderful accompaniments to steak, which is handy as Argentines eat the most meat per capita in the world! Try it yourself...
Bibendum Fact
Argentina's most planted white grape, Torrontes, is thought to have originated in Galicia in Spain and it might be just us but it pays more than a passing resemblance to Albarino with its perfumed fruity style.
