Bargain red from Argentina....


Argentina still produces some of the best bargains in the world....this is one of the best


2009 Roca Malbec Merlot....$7.99

The Roca family has been producing wine in Mendoza for 4 generations, and currently farms nearly 260 acres in San Rafael, the southernmost province of Mendoza. At altitudes of 2,300 to 2,600 feet above sea level, Roca's vineyards produce distinct, cool-climate wines of singular quality.


Tasting Notes: Shows a vibrant red color, with aromas of plums and ripe red fruit on the nose. The Malbec’s soft tannins and Merlot’s delicate fruit result in a wine of great intensity, elegance, and balance.
Serve With: An ideal pairing with saucy pasta dishes, pizza, or carne asada.
