The grape

Malbec

Best known in Mendoza, Cahors

Argentina's signature red. Dark plum, blackberry and violets, with a soft, velvety texture that makes it very easy to like, with high-altitude Mendoza vineyards keeping it fresh. In its original home, Cahors, it makes firmer, darker and more rustic wines.

Where it's from

Cahors

France

South-west France, along the winding River Lot. The original home of Malbec, known locally as Côt, long before Argentina made it famous. Expect dark, firm, savoury reds with plum and spice, more structured than their South American cousins. Once famous as the black wine of Cahors.
