Wine & Spirits
Based on La Pirámide Vineyard in Agrelo, this blend also includes fruit from other zones of Mendoza to create complex flavors that fan out into cherries, cassis and exotic spices. A firm structure frames its power, and promises a long life ahead.
-
Wine Enthusiast
Deep, lush, balanced and okay, with bacon, floral notes and huge raspberry and cassis aromas. Layered and structured across the palate, with concentration and balance to go with lusty cassis, blackberry, mocha and spice flavors. Finishes toasty and dark, with waves of espresso and mocha. Drink now-2015/Cellar Selection.

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
Catena Zapata's newest releases continue the high standards established by this Bodega virtually from its onset, a tribute to Nicolas Catena who continues to oversee his empire.
-
Wine Spectator
Flashy, with silky tannins framing the cassis and boysenberry notes, as toasty hints of mocha and licorice linger on the juicy finish. Drink now through 2012.

Bodega Catena Zapata is one of Argentina's high altitude Malbec pioneers. The Catena family began making wine in Mendoza in 1902. Nicolas Catena, third generation family vintner, was one of the first to see the potential of Mendoza's mountain vineyards for producing high quality Malbec. In 1994, he became the first Argentine to exprot a world-class bottling of Malbec under the Catena label. Nicolas is joined by his daughter, Dr. Laura Catena, in their relentless pursuit of world-class quality from the family's high altitude vineyards. Laura has done extensive work in introducing Malbec and other varietal plant selections, soil and climate analysis, and sustainable practices throughout Mendoza. Head winemaker, Alejandro Vigil, has been at Catena Zapata since 2002 and works with Laura and Nicolas to make wines that express the family's vineyards and palate.
