Plummeting Peso creating even more value for Argentina visitors?

The Points Guy just published a piece that suggests this is one of the best times to visit Argentina in years.

We are amazed that even since our #MalbecsOnly2018 trip in March, the currency has dropped from 20/1 US Dollar to 24.45 (as of today).

Even with significant Argentinean inflation, that has to be an eye opener.

 

11 Excellent Reasons to Visit Argentina Now

Why, is a blog that celebrates all kinds of Argentine wine, called MalbecsOnly? It goes back to an experiment I started after visiting in 2008. I decided my friends can always pick out a Napa cab, or the French wine, but that I would only allow myself to buy wines from Argentina. I figured, focusing on one thing would force me to learn about them. I’m no expert, but I’m an enthusiast, and here I share what I learn.
