Malbec is grown in Bordeaux France ,in the Loire,and Cahors. It is grown in California and Rapazzini does it as a single varietal wine. Malbec is mainly used for blending, adding a deep red color and tannin, but winemakers in Argentina have taken to this particular grape and now produce Malbec as its own wine. The grape yields soft, chewy fruit with rich, strong flavors often reminiscent of black cherry or plum. Malbec wines are also perfect for aging. Pair it with slow-cooked red meats, such as stew, or with wild game.
