($10, Foley Family Wines): Full disclosure, Malbec is not my favorite wine because all too often I find it overblown and just too big.  So imagine my surprise when I ran across this one.  It’s refined — not a word commonly used to describe Malbec — with a lovely texture and freshness.  Not heavy-handed, it is an extraordinary value and a perfect choice for beef tonight.
