"Argentine winemaker Susana Balbo compares her Brioso blend of cabernet sauvignon, cabernet franc, petit verdot and malbec - - which retails for about $45 in the U.S. -- with a $200-$250 bottle of French Bordeaux."

so what do i get with one of those $150 bottles of argentine wine? a wine equivalent to a $1000 bottle of french?
