Bodega Catena Zapata
Nicolas Catena Zapata Mendoza Cabernet Sauvignon Malbec
The essence of Argentinian wine. Rich, great acidity and minerality.

Feb 3rd, 2017Rich, decadent, but with fine grained tannin, and hints of smoke, cedar and graphite. Excited to taste this but anticipate the increased use of Cabernet in the future!

Jan 21st, 2016This 75% Cab/25% Malbec blend is made from a plant by plant selection of rows within Catena's high altitude vineyards, and only made in outstanding years. Red ribbons are tied around each chosen vine. Young, but S-E-X-Y.

Apr 28th, 2015Not too shabby...but a little underwhelming, especially considering the price point.
