Overview

Gauchito Gil is Argentina's Robin Hood. As such, it seems fitting that Australia's own Malbec World Day has been borrowed from the South American country, where the majority of the world's Malbec comes from. If this day is a donation from the grape god, it's one we're happy to accept.

After a successful debut in 2016, Gauchito Gil is bringing Malbec Day to Sydney for a third time with a five-hour wine bonanza at Carriageworks on Sunday, April 15. The event comes from the organisers of the Pinot Palooza and Game of Rhones, and mirrors the free-reign tasting set-up. Your $60 ticket will include a wine glass, and from there you'll be able to move around, sampling over 90 Australian, Argentinian and French malbec varietals. Other events have been known to get a little boozy, so to soak up all that wine there will be top-notch empanadas from Porteño, charcuterie from La Bastide and alfajores (soft shortbread-like cookies filled with dulce de leche) from Alfamores.

It really doesn't matter if you know everything there is about Malbec or if you don't know much at all, because Malbec Day is about education and celebration of the Argentine grape. And what better way to celebrate than with an bottomless glass of wine?
