Malbec World Day is celebrated in April each year, to commemorate the day when president Domingo Faustino Sarmiento of Argentina officially made it his mission to transform Argentina’s wine industry. The original Bordeaux varietal now celebrated in Argentina is also grown around the world. Here in the Sierra Foothills this inky violet wine with dark, plump fruit character offers robust tannins with a smoky finish and hints of pomegranate, berries & cocoa.
