Flavours in Malbec by Climate
Malbec is originally from the south-west of France, where it became common as a blending grape in Bordeaux wines. But due to the grapes’ poor resistance to weather and pests, it never surfaced as a top French variety. Instead, it found a new home in Mendoza, Argentina where a nostalgic French botanist planted it in 1868. Today, Argentina leads production of the grape with over 70 per cent of all the acres of Malbec in the world and Argentina has reinvigorated Malbec as one of the top 18 noble grapes. Now it grows in seven countries and continues to grow in popularity.
To celebrate World Malbec Day Wine Maker Sergio Casé, will host a Master Class where Members will be able to sample a selection of Malbec wines from the Trapiché Vineyards of Argentina.
