The Catena family has spent four generations mastering high-altitude viticulture, and the results speak for themselves in this beautifully expressive wine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis Malbec captures the full breadth of Argentina's rugged mountain terroir, sourced from a trio of Mendoza’s top sites, including Lunlunta, El Cepillo, and Gualtallary. Hand-harvested from old vines grown on rocky, limestone-rich soils, the fruit sees a cool fermentation and gentle handling to lock in its natural vibrancy. Maturation in French oak for 11–13 months polishes the wine without dulling its wild heart.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2023 vintage brings plush layers of black cherry, plum and violet, framed by fine tannins and a lick of fresh acidity that keeps everything light on its feet. It’s generous without being heavy, structured without being rigid, it's textbook Catena.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn absolute benchmark for great value Mendoza Malbec, offering both immediate drinkability and the pedigree to reward cellaring for a decade or more.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Catena Zapata","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43923124846635,"sku":"2023 Bodega Catena Zapata Catena Malbec","price":38.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2572\/9722\/files\/2022BodegaCatenaZapataCatenaMalbec.webp?v=1745815176","url":"https:\/\/www.differentdrop.com\/products\/2024-bodega-catena-zapata-catena-malbec","provider":"Different Drop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
