2022 Monarcha Malbec

 You’re practically guaranteed to be serving a crowd-pleaser with this medium-bodied Malbec, which perfectly balances its fruity and savory components. Opening notes of bright red raspberry and strawberry melt into a slightly creamy mid-palate of berry compote, while touches of sweet tobacco, bell pepper, and toasted oak reveal themselves on the finish. Prime rib comes to mind as a top food-pairing choice.
