2019 Nicolás Catena Zapata, Mendoza
Dry | Red | Still | 14%
A pioneer in Argentina, Catena Zapata is a benchmark for Malbec. There's power here but plenty of stony, elegant restraint too. The tannins are grippy and chocolatey, and the fruit is dense and ripe, with light crunchier red fruit notes. Developing earthy, truffle notes, this is built for the long haul.
