El Che Steakhouse & Bar

This is a tight, all Argentine pour list built entirely for the glass, with every one of the fifteen wines available by the glass and nothing priced above nineteen dollars, so it is easy to sell and easy to drink across. It leans white and skews toward exploration of regions like Patagonia and the Calchaqui Valley, with serious Malbec showing up at the top in Paul Hobbs Viña Cobos Bramare and Bodega Chacra Barda Pinot Noir from Patagonia. Look to producers like Zuccardi and Bodega Colomé for the range here, from a Q Chardonnay to high altitude reds. It rewards a guest who wants to drink Argentina by the glass at a fair price rather than someone hunting depth or back vintages, since every wine is a single listing. Steer anyone curious toward the whites first, since that is where this list actually lives.
