Discover your style of Argentinian wine

Malbec: Argentina’s signature red

Malbec is a natural place to begin. Many examples offer plum and blackberry flavours with a generous texture, while others bring floral notes, fresher fruit and a firmer structure. Vineyard location and winemaking make a real difference, so there is plenty to explore beyond one familiar style.

If you enjoy a rounded, fruit-rich red, look for tasting notes describing ripe plum, supple tannins and gentle oak. For a fresher expression, compare wines from higher, cooler sites. The region is a useful clue, but the individual bottle’s description will help you choose the right balance of fruit, body and structure.

Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and other reds

For a different take on Argentinian red wine, explore Cabernet Sauvignon or Cabernet Franc. Cabernet Sauvignon can bring blackcurrant fruit and structure, while Cabernet Franc often adds fragrant, savoury detail. Both also appear in blends with Malbec. Pinot Noir offers another direction for those who prefer red-fruit flavours and a lighter feel.

Torrontés and Chardonnay

Torrontés is Argentina’s distinctive aromatic white. Its floral and citrus aromas can suggest sweetness, yet many examples are dry. Try it if you enjoy expressive whites, and check the tasting notes for the wine’s sweetness and texture.

Chardonnay offers a broad choice of styles, from fresh and citrus-led to rounded and creamy. Look for notes about oak and barrel fermentation when you want something richer, or choose a fresher style for a lighter meal. Argentina’s white wines are well worth exploring alongside its reds.

Argentinian wine regions to explore

Mendoza

Mendoza is a starting point for Malbec lovers, with a wide range of vineyards and styles in the foothills of the Andes. Luján de Cuyo and the Uco Valley are two names to look for within this broad region. Explore Mendoza for Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay and red blends as well as Malbec.

Uco Valley

Within Mendoza, the Uco Valley is known for high-altitude vineyards and a diverse patchwork of growing conditions. Its cooler sites can produce Malbec with freshness and floral character alongside depth of flavour. Compare different producers to discover how vineyard location, soil and winemaking shape the wine.

Salta and Cafayate

Head north to Salta for high-altitude vineyards and expressive wines. Cafayate is a name to know for Torrontés, while the wider region also produces Malbec, Cabernet Sauvignon and Tannat. It is a rewarding place to explore aromatic whites or compare a northern red with your usual Mendoza favourite.

Patagonia

Further south, Patagonia offers a different perspective, with wines from areas including Río Negro, Neuquén and Chubut. Pinot Noir and Chardonnay are useful starting points, alongside Malbec and Merlot. The region covers varied conditions, so use the producer and tasting notes to guide your choice.

What food goes with Argentinian wine?

Malbec with steak and chimichurri: a generous Malbec makes a classic partner for grilled beef. Keep the chimichurri balanced so its vinegar and chilli complement the meal without dominating the wine.

Torrontés with chicken empanadas: try a dry, aromatic example with gently spiced chicken and crisp pastry. Its floral character also makes it an interesting choice for fragrant dishes with moderate heat.

Chardonnay with mushroom risotto: a rounded Chardonnay can complement the dish’s creamy texture. Choose a fresher style if you prefer a brighter contrast, and match the wine’s richness to the food.

Argentinian wine questions

Is Argentinian Malbec sweet?

Most Malbec sold as a still red wine is dry. Ripe fruit flavours can give an impression of sweetness without making it a sweet wine. Check the individual description if sweetness is important to your choice.

Does Argentina make white wine?

Yes. Torrontés and Chardonnay are two good places to start. Torrontés offers aromatic floral and citrus notes, while Chardonnay ranges from fresh and lightly oaked to fuller, richer styles.

Are all Argentinian reds full-bodied?

No. Body varies with the grape, vineyard and winemaking. Pinot Noir and fresher expressions of Malbec offer alternatives to the richest reds. Compare the tasting notes for body, tannins and oak influence.
