Argentina

I just returned from some much needed vacation on Sunday. 

JB and I traveled to Argentina.  We had an amazing time, and saw its bustling main city, Buenos Aires, as well as some of its more remote regions in the south.  The food, the wine, they were stellar, and relatively cheap. 

We drank wine primarily from the Mendoza region, in northwest Argentina.  Malbec is the main grape, but you'll find plenty of other varietals to try as well.  I also drank a lot of Quilmes, a beer widely available throughout the country, and brewed in Buenos Aires.

I'll be posting some pictures from the trip, and hope to post about some cocktails later this week.  Be in touch soon, I hope.

Ciao!
