Catena Zapata Argentino Vineyard Malbec 2021 chateau-potensac this is simply a classThe Catena Zapata Malbec Argentino shows a saturated dark violet colour with ruby reflections; the nose offers cassis, blueberries and violets, along with a strong suggestion of soil tones. It combines density and sweetness on the one hand, with gripping, lightly saline flavours of mocha, dark berries, spice, and minerals; a palate staining finish dominated by sweet black and blue fruits. Pairs well with lamb chops, beef tenderloin, and goat cheese.
