How to find it
Serve Criolla lightly chilled and treat it like the easygoing crowd-pleaser it is. It is brilliant with summer food: grilled shrimp and ceviche, fish tacos, charcuterie, soft cheeses, salads and Mediterranean dishes, or simply on its own on a warm afternoon. (For the exact temperature, see our guide to serving Argentine wine.) If your Argentine journey so far has been all big reds and high-altitude whites, Criolla is the soulful, slightly rebellious detour — the taste of where it all began, finally getting the respect it waited 500 years for.
