Another Trader Joe’s find… we love that. This Malbec cost me $8.99 and I had to pick it up to see if it was worth the price point.  I love the fact that this producer hand harvests their grapes and is grown in the sub region called Gualtallary which is the high altitude wine region in Tupungato on the Northern side of Valle de Uco located in Mendoza, Argentina.

 

As I open this Malbec, I dive into how we can’t have evolution without discomfort.  Being uncomfortable is part of the growth process and we need to remember that we are always in control of what we are becoming. 

 

Tune in now as I dive into detail on this topic and try out this Malbec from Tupungato.  Hope you enjoy… and sip a glass while listening to this episode.
