Yes, I think that would be a good idea. If you are going to shlep back a few bottles all the way back home, I would say that you perhaps find something made by a smaller producer... something thats not produced in mass quantities. It may or may not be a more expensive wine... but maybe what I would look for would be a wine that is not only of excellent quality... but a wine that "has a story", and perhaps one that is only available in the Argentine domestic market.
