Professional Ratings

  • 91
    Lots of rich, ripe fruit, but in a balanced and serious way. Full-bodied with medium, round and savory tannins and a delicious, juicy finish. Serious value. Drink or hold.

Black Cabra Winery Image
The Black Cabra (goat) is a common sight in the Argentine Andes where the winery and vineyards are located. One cabra in particular became friends with one of the winery workers. Every day this Black Cabra would follow along to the winery and look through the winery window as they worked. They named their value wines in that goat's honor.

The wines, like the Black Cabra (goat), come from the Argentine Andes. These wines are produced from the estate vineyards and crafted in the state-of-the-art winery, Bodega Zolo, by winemaker Fabian Valenzuela and vineyard manager Carlos Correas. The President and Owner is Patricia Ortiz. The wines are 100% Sustainably Farmed.

Celebrated for its bold flavors and supple texture, Malbec has enjoyed runaway success in Argentina since the late 20th century. The grape originated in Bordeaux, France, where it historically contributed color and tannin to blends. A French agronomist, who saw great potential for the variety in Mendoza’s hot, high-altitude landscape, brought Malbec to Argentina in 1868. Somm Secret—If you’re trying to please a crowd, Malbec is generally a safe bet with its combination of dense fruit and soft tannins.

Mendoza Wine

Argentina

View all products

By far the largest and best-known winemaking province in Argentina, Mendoza is responsible for over 70% of the country’s enological output. Set in the eastern foothills of the Andes Mountains, the climate is dry and continental, presenting relatively few challenges for viticulturists during the growing season. Mendoza, divided into several distinctive sub-regions, including Luján de Cuyo and the Uco Valley, is the source of some of the country’s finest wines.

For many wine lovers, Mendoza is practically synonymous with Malbec. Originally a Bordelaise variety brought to Argentina by the French in the mid-1800s, here it found success and renown that it never knew in its homeland where a finicky climate gives mixed results. Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, Merlot and Pinot Noir are all widely planted here as well (and sometimes even blended with each other or Malbec). Mendoza's main white varieties include Chardonnay, Torrontés, Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon.
