Friday, April 17th is World Malbec Day’s 10th Anniversary

April 16, 2020 by Sam The Wine Teacher

Friday, April 17th is World Malbec Day.  Most people tend to associate Malbec with Argentina and for good reason.  Argentina produces 75% of the world’s Malbec wine.  Most come from Mendoza and the best ones from the higher elevation areas of Uco Valley and Lujan de Cuyo.
