I wouldn't stress over things like this. I keep Bordeaux, Burgundy,
Riesling/Rose, Chardonnay, and Champagne glasses handy, but drink lots
of other kinds of wine, and just guess what's closest. As Malbec is
historically a part of Bordeaux blends, I'd go with the CS/Merlot
glass in your case.
But really don't worry about it - I've drunk a lot of Bordeaux from
Burg stems (and vice versa).



Yes, I have plenty of other glasses, too - not stressing :-))

Great answer: "As Malbec is

glass in your case."

I'll go with that.
Thanks for your reply; my appreciation.
