However, in 1956, a frost hit Bordeaux killing most of the Malbec there.\u00a0 When comparing French Malbec with Argentinian Malbec, note the viticultural differences. Malbec can thrive in a variety of soil types.\u00a0 In fertile or clay soils (such as Cahors, France), the berries are larger, with higher acidity and heavier tannins and more earth tones.\u00a0 In Argentina, where it enjoys more heat, limestone soils in bush vines (goblet system) the berries are smaller, the tannins softer, and the plum and raspberry notes are stronger.\u00a0 Another important difference is that Argentina typically employs a flood irrigation system.\u00a0 As the snow melts in the Andes Mountains, the water goes into a small aqueduct canal system that makes its way down the mountains to all of the vineyards. The vineyards themselves are typically biodynamic as to keep all of the vineyard owners happy downstream. Whereas most other parts of the world now have drip systems.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-45d29bf9 elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"45d29bf9\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5efccf86 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"5efccf86\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-15a397bc elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"15a397bc\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">COMING SOON!<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-360c3d7e elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"360c3d7e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>This page is currently aging like a fine wine.
