Our take
What we make of this bottle
Malbec is the word to know here. It names a red grape that started out in France and went on to become the most widely planted wine grape in Argentina, where this one comes from. Argentina's wine regulator points to plum, blackberry and violet as the usual references, with a robust body and clear acidity, though altitude and cellar work can leave it fresher or riper.
The label says Argentina and stops at the country. Most of the country's vineyards sit in dry western land along the Andes, but there are also northern valleys, vineyards to the east and the cooler south in Patagonia, and a province or a smaller named place would tell you far more about where these grapes actually grew. Conditions change a great deal with latitude and height.
Who bottles it under the Trivento name is something we have not been able to confirm, so the grape and the country are the firm parts of the story. 4 shoppers have rated it, averaging 4.25 out of five.
Trivento is Bodega Trivento, an Argentine producer whose name comes from the three winds it says blow across Mendoza's arid land: the Polar, the Zonda and the Sudestada. The company's own site lists Malbec under two tiers, Reserve and Golden Reserve, both drawing fruit from Mendoza; it does not list a plain, unqualified Malbec matching this record. Which of Trivento's tiers sits on this particular shelf is not something we can confirm from the producer's own site, so we are not carrying either tier's technical numbers, such as alcohol content or oak treatment, into this record.
Our call: a reasonable inexpensive Argentine Malbec if the country and the price are what you are shopping on, with Bodega Trivento's Mendoza identity now on the record. Pass if you want to know which Trivento this is; the producer lists only Reserve and Golden Reserve tiers, neither confirmed as this bottle, so the technical story stays open, and four ratings are a start.

Getting to know Argentina.
Most Argentine vineyards lie in dry western landscapes beside the Andes, but the country also includes northern valleys, eastern sites and cooler Patagonia. A province or smaller indication gives a more useful account of place.
What the name means
Argentina is the country origin. The national wine regulator maintains separate geographical indications and denominations of origin for more precise places.
How grapes grow here
Many western vineyards rely on high sunshine, low rainfall and mountain water, with large day-to-night temperature changes at elevation. Conditions shift with latitude and altitude, especially between the northwest, Cuyo and Patagonia.
What lies under the vines
Alluvial sand, silt, clay, gravel and stones washed from the Andes are widespread, but their depth and mix change by valley. The national name does not establish one soil.
