Malbec has long been the go-to grape when it comes to red wines from Argentina. But the country's vintners make flavorful wines from other varieties as well, notable for their great appeal and value. The reds below demonstrate this and provide a helpful introduction to what Argentina can offer with Malbec and beyond.
