Red Blend from Argentina

Mosquita Muerta Wines have been around since 2009. I remember first trying them in Buenos Aires when visiting my family and honestly have loved every wine I have tried from them. After trying the wine in Argentina, I saw they started importing their wines to the US.

This winery hand harvests their grapes and is located in one of the best regions in Argentina known for creating complex wines. Today's blend consist of 60% Malbec, 20% Syrah and 20% Cabernet Franc. Each grape is fermented on their own in concrete vats and then blended in together. I love that it is predominantly made of Malbec, giving the wine a great aromatic expression.

Tune in now to get all the details on this winery and grab a glass to try this delicious red blend with me!
