Bodega Catena Zapata
High Mountain Vines Mendoza Cabernet Sauvignon
Mendoza, Cuyo, Argentina
Deep Ruby color, purple edges, with aromas of dark berry fruits, cacao, sweet spice and herb notes. On the palate flavors of blackberry, dark cherry and black plum with cacao, vanilla, black pepper and earthy notes. Fine tannins, long finish ending with fruit, sweet spice and earthy mineral character. Nice!

This we opened was the 2006 Catena Cabernet Sauvignon. Bodega Catena Zepata High Altitude Grapes selected by Laura Catena from Mendoza, Argentina.
On the nose are beautiful notes of bbn lack cherry, blackberry, black plum, bbn lack currant, cassis, chocolate, flint, and earth.
On the palate we find black cherry, blackberry, black currant, spice, herbal notes, eucalyptus, graphite, cedar, espresso, and dark earth.
This is a full bodied wine and you would never know it to be 17 years old with medium+ acidity and medium+ round grippy tannins that leaves you with a long black fruit graphite finish. It has been a bit since my last wine and we are back on the wine again. I hope everyone is well and doing fine? Please stay safe and healthy. Nostrovia! 🍷🍷🍷🍷

Easy, fruit driven nose, on the sweet red side of Cab, I guess residual sugar higher than 3, good polished tannins and an easy red wine. Technically well made, clean. Mouthfilling, good length, crowd pleaser
