LiquidStoryteller Project: Malbec in Six Glasses

Malbec: this fantastic French grape hailing from Cahors, enjoyed a meteoric surge in popularity once the drinking public became familiar with the versions hailing from Argentina. In this episode the LiquidStoryteller (Nick Materese) and Rachel Lipman (Winemaker at Loew Vineyards) sit down to offer their takes on this versatile grape. We drink and discuss several different versions and offer our thoughts on them all as well as where we think the grape is headed.
