Mendoza makes good as Argentina's promising wine country
Mendoza makes good as Argentina's promising wine country

(Foxnews) - I’d always had this notion that the wines of Argentina were cheap and one-note. You know, the “ta!” without the “da!” with not much more going on than your basic, pizza-night reds.
A few weeks ago, I was fortunate enough to take one of those rare, once-in-a-lifetime treks to Argentina’s most prolific and, inarguably, best-known wine region: Mendoza. And you know what I found out? I was wrong.
Not only are Argentina’s wine still the source of incredible bargains --what you can get for a sawbuck and a Lincoln (that's $15 in case you were wondering) here feels like low-hanging fruit of the best -quality --but the readily available wines had more regional variation than I had expected.
