September is all about Argentina!
Torrontes, insane Malbec…. Salta, Mendoza, San Juan, Patagonia… Choripan, blood sausage, Chorizo and beef beef beef!
Just a few of the things that make this country great and add to making it a wine lovers paradise! Argentina has been the hottest category in the wine biz for the past 3 years, and it goes way beyond the standard Mendoza Malbec!
