That's what naps are for. If he was Spanish, he'd still be alive.

I’d say pour one out, but don’t stop and pour the whole bottle out

It’s 3.99 in Virginia…
You can get Alamos or Trapiche Argentine Malbec for $6.99 at BJs and they are good wines…best value in the US. I mean they are cheaper than all those garbage wines and they are a quality bottle.
Unfortunately most Americans will probably continue buying Concha y Toro, Frontera etc.

+1 on the Alamos. Argentine red are always an excellent wine quality to price Spatio.

But the two Argentine wines I mentioned are not cheap wines..just cheap here in the US cause the wine manufacturers are trying to break into the US market. It’s an anomaly.
The Trapiche in particular is a really good wine!
My mom who lives in Argentina is shocked at how cheap they are here.

And I typically buy wines that are in the $10-$24 range, not $3.99 or $6.99. I was just agreeing that $6.99 is a good price for the Alamos.
I think there's a bigger difference in quality between cheap ass and high end beer than there is for cheap end and high end wine.
