The story behind Iris
Malbec is the red grape that made Argentina famous, and the style most bottles show is generous and easy: dark plum and blackberry fruit, a little violet on the nose, and soft tannins that keep it smooth rather than stern. It came from southwest France, where it still makes dark, structured Cahors, but the Argentine version is rounder and ready young.
We stock Iris Malbec in Commack as a single bottle find, so what you see is what we have. It drinks like a value pour: ripe, low on grip, and happy with grilled food.
