Mmmmm Malbec


Malbec is probably one of my favorite reds. It's delicious, deep, and drinkable—and doesn't sound too pretentious or serious. Plus, you don't have to pay an arm and a leg for an acceptable bottle. The ones I tend to like are from the Mendoza region in Argentina, including my absolute favorite bottle of Catena Malbec. Usually around $22 a bottle, it costs a little more than the other wines on my list, but once in a while, it's worth it! It's smooth and sophisticated, and if it weren't 10 a.m., (happy hour doesn't start this early) I might need to refresh my taste buds.

A few other must-drink Malbecs on my list—all from Argentina and under $20:
1. Layer Cake
2. Diseño
3. Don Miguel Gascon

Let me know if you have any more to recommend—I'll try anything!
