Catena Zapata
Catena Zapata Catena Appellation ‘Vista Flores’ Malbec
The nose offers ripe, concentrated dark and red fruit aromas with delicate floral notes of lavender and violet, and mocha. The mouthfeel is rich and full with notes of sweet spice and a touch of leather. The finish presents soft, well-integrated tannins with bright, crisp acidity that gives the wine exceptional length.
Description
Catena Zapata
Catena Zapata, founded in 1902 in Mendoza, Argentina, is a legendary name in the world of wine, credited with elevating Malbec to international prominence. Under the visionary leadership of Nicolás Catena and later his daughter, Laura, the winery pioneered high-altitude viticulture, particularly in the Andean foothills, redefining the potential of Argentine terroir. The Catena Zapata Malbec Argentino, one of its flagship wines, epitomizes this legacy. Crafted from old-vine vineyards like Adrianna and Nicasia, it showcases the profound depth, elegance, and complexity of Malbec, with rich black fruit, floral notes, and a signature minerality. Globally acclaimed, the wine has cemented Catena Zapata’s reputation as a benchmark producer, placing Argentine Malbec among the world’s finest expressions of red wine.
