The Wine Minute with Jonathan Mitchell - Ian Blackburn

In this Wine Minute, I am with my buddy Ian Blackburn of Learn About Wine, as we taste Argentinian wines at his event at the Roosevelt Hotel in Hollywood
Ian's company, Learn About Wine, put on this trade event to promote the wines of Argentina. There were hundreds of incredible Malbecs, Cabernets, Chardonnays, Pinot Noirs, and blends. Some of the highlights for me were the wines of Clos de la Siete, made by 7 French Bordeaux makers who are in Argentina making fabulous Bordeaux-style blends, and the wines of Bramare, made by Paul Hobbs down in Argentina. His Cobos line is the super-premium, with a phenomenal Malbec and a KILLER Cabernet Sauvignon. To learn more about the great wines served at this event, go to Ian's website, learnaboutwine.com.
