| Argentina and Chile are making some super wines these days. Argentinian reds often made with the Malbec grape are full flavoured, long lasting and go well with the steaks that country is famous for. Chilean wines are made at higher altitude, slightly cooler and have overall a greater subtlety. They uniformly offer very good value.. |
