It produces full-bodied wines with high tannins and flavors of dark fruit, such as blackberry and plum, along with notes of chocolate and spice. The ABV for Malbec wines typically ranges from 13-15%. Its popularity is due to its ability to produce rich, flavorful wines that are both approachable and complex.
