Argento 2009 Reserva Malbec (Mendoza)
- $16
Argento has found its calling with this wine, by far the best to date from this label. It’s deep and pure, with raisin, blackberry, spice and vanilla on the nose. Super solid and lush, with layered flavors of jammy berry, coffee and chocolate. Holds all its form on the finish; excellent vino for the dollar.

Argento 2009 El Colectivo Malbec (Mendoza)
- Best Buy
- $10
Nicely done and not the least bit difficult or complicated. The nose is full of bold black fruit and balsam wood, while the palate is full and stocky, but balanced. Flavors of berry and cherry are forward and sticky rich, while the finish is long and shows just enough acidity to keep things focused.

Argento 2009 Reserva Cabernet Sauvignon (Mendoza)
- $16
Ripe, fruity and jammy on the nose, with smokiness and earth to go with standard berry aromas. The palate leans towards full and jammy, with sweet berry and mild spice flavors. Chunky and full-bodied, but for the most part it gets things right.

Argento 2010 Torrontés (Salta)
- $13
Light and airy to start, with peach and other white fruit aromas. The palate has good feel and lift along with nectarine, melon and mango flavors. Blends tropicality along with creaminess and crispness. Nice for the variety.

Argento 2008 Bonarda (Mendoza)
- $13
Saturated in color almost to the point of opaque. The nose is brash, with rubbery berry, chocolate and sandalwood aromas. Intense but not overpowering, with flavors of sweet black plum, berry and black currant. Spry and lively throughout, with licorice and bitter chocolate on the finish.

Argento 2009 Malbec (Mendoza)
- $13
Coconut is apparent on the bouquet along with thick blackberry aromas. The palate is big and saturated but also simple and bulky. Flavors of baked blackberry are candied, while the finish is figgy and chubby.

Argento 2010 Cool Climate Selection Pinot Grigio (Mendoza)
- Online Exclusive
- $13
Modest, minerally and clean, with mild dusty apple aromas. The palate is pillowy and comfortable, with just enough acidity to push up the apple, green grape and white plum flavors. Finishes similarly, with a sweet lasting impression.

Argento 2008 Malbec (Mendoza)
- Online Exclusive
- $13
Opens with pleasant, semiexotic blueberry and herbal aromas. The palate is bright and snappy, with moderate weight and balance and then fairly bright red berry, vanilla and herbal notes. Forward, lean and simple Malbec. Gets the job done.
