Malbec

Red Wine

A red grape native to southwest France that became the signature variety of Argentina's Mendoza region. It appears in the COLA registry as both domestic (California) and imported label filings. The variety produces deeply pigmented wines with plummy character; its registry label count reflects growing U.S. consumer interest in the grape.
