D.V. Catena Historico Mendoza Red Blend

A very nice, light, fruit forward wine. Dark purple in color, dark fruit on the palate. Perfect since it’s my Friday!!

Dark purple with red violet highlights. Inviting nose of herby blackberry. Medium full palate echoes the nose with black candy and balsam. Medium acidity and medium minus tannins wrapped around it all. Medium finish continues the palate. A nice, Bordeaux-ish, Malbec-led blend that's a great accompaniment for steaks or burgers.

Well balanced

Vintage 2015

Deep opaque ruby with hints of purple; medium plus intensity aromas of cooked black fruit and intense oak influence, blackberry jam, black plum, black cherry, cloves, cinnamon, cedar, vanilla; dry, medium plus acid, medium plus ripe tannins, medium alcohol, medium plus body, medium plus intensity flavors that are a bit more savory than aromas, dried black currant, dried plum; long finish, this wine is very concentrated and well balanced

Clean fruit, but still a very bold wine.

Light nose. Smooth with a good finish.

Unique taste. Medium body but with a little deep cherry taste. LOVE

Well blended! This didn’t make me feel like I was in the desert like my most recent Spanish wines. Juicy and acidic!

A perfectly acceptable, inexpensive wine. Juicy wild strawberries, blackberries, and a hint of prunes, tobacco, and coffee. Long finish. A solid value.
