Malbec is the synonymous grape of South America, particularly Argentina and Chile; although, it is biologically native to France. Malbec produces some of the most popular red wine in the world: full-bodied, meaty, rustic, ripe and juicy. It almost goes without saying, but Malbec is the perfect match for barbequed ribeye steak with chimichurri.
