Wine Region
Argentina
Argentina is Malbec country, and most of it pours out of Mendoza where vineyards sit a mile above sea level against the Andes. Salta grows even higher and adds floral Torrontés, while Patagonia handles Pinot Noir in the far south. Visits run long here, usually with lunch, always with a view of the mountains.
