Buenos Aires Trip: Malbec

Of course, we buy Malbec from time to time from the local K&L store on El Camino. But it is an entirely different experience to walk into the small Grand Cru wine store on Avenida Alvear in Recoleta, and be guided through a host of wines from boutique wineries.

There are other places that represent the bigger Mendoza and Salta wines, but for the more unique ones, Grand Cru, from what I gathered is the best place to go. While there are wines
in the $50-$75 price range that are great, many of the $15-$20 wines are also excellent.

We have, so far, opened a Dona Paula Estate, and a La Flor de Pulenta. Very nice finds.
