Malbec, sometimes called Côt or Auxxerois, is a 2,000-year-old black and thick-skinned grape variety with quite a history. Although Malbec originated in France, today it is often celebrated in association with Argentina. Malbec produces a full-bodied and deep colored red wine known for its ripe plum flavors and notes of dark fruit such as blackberries and dark cherry.
The grape's versatility, its tannin structure and resilient flavors make it a perfect accompaniment to a wide range of dishes.
A Taste of Malbec is illustrated with beautiful and inspiring pictures, also for each recipe. Although wine can be complicated, the text is easy to read so that the subject wine - food - and recipes, and why the components fit perfectly together, becomes understandable.
