Our take
What we make of this bottle
Corks + Cheers, which counts Espuela del Gaucho among the wines in its portfolio, lists this bottle as a Malbec from Mendoza, Argentina, an origin we know from that listing alone. We do not have a shopper rating for this wine.
In our grape research, Malbec is a red grape that began in France; it usually makes a deeply colored wine, sturdy in structure but approachable. Argentina's wine regulator describes plum, blackberry and violet as common markers, with robust body and clear acidity, and adds that altitude, climate and choices made in the cellar can leave the wine feeling fresher, firmer or riper. Argentina now plants more Malbec than any other wine grape.
Across ten stores in our August 2026 checks, the shelf price sat between $16.99 and $17.88.
