Also vinified sparkling and widely exported (Sonoma, Margaret River, Casablanca). A Burgundian variety, a cross of Pinot Noir × Gouais Blanc, half-sibling of Aligoté.

Argentine Atlantic coast province (Médanos, Chapadmalal, Sierra de la Ventana), renaissance since 2000 in contrast to the powerful Andean reds, temperate oceanic climate. Malbec is king in an atypical red: fresh and elegant with notes of cherry, raspberry, violet, herbs and a saline maritime touch, fine tannins — far more airy than Mendoza. Firm Cabernet Sauvignon and silky Pinot Noir as complements. Crisp Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc and Riesling in whites.
