Description
Catena Zapata Malbec Argentino
Discover the excellence of Catena Zapata Malbec Argentino, a wine gem presented in a 6-bottle box. This top-shelf Malbec is made from hand-selected grapes and carefully aged in French oak barrels. Fermentation is conducted at low temperatures for optimal aromatic extraction, while manual cap management during fermentation ensures a gentle and smooth extraction of tannins. Both alcoholic and malolactic fermentation leave considerable sediment in the barrel, contributing to its distinctive character.
On the palate, Catena Zapata Malbec Argentino reveals impressive complexity, with notes of ripe red fruit, subtle spices, and an elegant hint of oak. Its robust structure and long finish make this wine a perfect choice for true wine aficionados.
This Malbec pairs exquisitely with high-end dishes. In a prestigious restaurant, such as Alinea in Chicago or CUT in Beverly Hills, it complements a grilled beef filet with red wine reduction and truffle puree, herb-crusted lamb with roasted vegetables, or a beef stew with wild mushrooms. It also harmonizes beautifully with a grilled ribeye steak with red wine sauce, adding depth and sophistication to the dining experience.
