Discover the remarkable story behind Bodega Catena Zapata Birth of the Cabernet, a premium Argentine red wine inspired by the legendary origins of Cabernet Sauvignon. Produced in San Carlos, Valle de Uco, Mendoza, this exceptional blend reflects the winery's commitment to innovation while honoring one of the world's most celebrated grape varieties.
Crafted from 90% Cabernet Sauvignon and 10% Cabernet Franc, with fruit sourced primarily from the La Pirámideand Angélica Sur vineyards, the wine beautifully expresses the character of the Andean terroir. Under the direction of renowned winemaker Alejandro Vigil, it undergoes full malolactic fermentation before aging for 12 to 24 months in a selection of first, second, and third-use French oak barrels.
The result is a deep, elegant red wine with layered aromas of dark berries and delicate spices. On the palate, it delivers a silky texture, refined structure, and remarkable depth, leading to a long, balanced finish.
Ideal for memorable dinners and special celebrations, Birth of the Cabernet pairs beautifully with herb-crusted rack of lamb, filet mignon with black truffle butter and wild mushroom duxelles, grilled quail with foie gras and cherry compote, or aged cheeses.
