Drink

This Argentinian winery is known for its powerful and pricey red malbecs, but its entry-level chardonnay is also reliably one of the best-quality value whites in the world. It has enough buttery richness to let you know it's a chardonnay, but that decadence is elegantly balanced with a quenching tartness of green pear and lemon that keeps it singing with your food.
