Bodega Amalaya Gran Corte Malbec 2020 Review
This wine delivers bright red fruit, complex savory notes, and solid structure all at an approachable price point. That's why we love Argentinian Malbec, especially examples from high-altitude sites like this. It's 85 percent Malbec, which contributes those vibrant fruit notes, but the small amounts of Cabernet Franc and Tannat add those earthy, herbaceous hints and grippy tannins. Break this bottle out for weeknight dinner pairings.
