Catena Zapata Malbec Argentino SPECIAL VINTAGE 2010 – A Timeless Masterpiece of Malbec
The Catena Zapata Malbec Argentino SPECIAL VINTAGE 2010 is a rare and extraordinary expression of high-end Malbec, a true collector’s gem. This exclusive and limited edition originates from the legendary Adrianna and Nicasia vineyards, two of the most prestigious terroirs in the Uco Valley, where extreme altitude and limestone soils shape a wine of unmatched elegance, depth, and longevity.
In the glass, it showcases a deep purple color with shimmering violet hues. On the nose, it captivates with an opulent bouquet of ripe blackberries, cassis, and wild blueberries, intertwined with floral notes of lavender and violets, and layers of graphite, dark chocolate, and truffle. Its 18-month aging in French oak barrels imparts a stunning complexity, unveiling hints of espresso, black pepper, tobacco, and exotic spices. The palate is expansive, velvety, and endlessly persistent, with finely grained tannins and a vibrant acidity that ensures impeccable aging potential.
A wine of this caliber deserves only the finest pairings: Japanese A5 Kobe beef with miso-glazed eggplant, dry-aged duck breast with cherry-balsamic reduction, or slow-braised short ribs with black truffle polenta. These exquisite dishes complement its richness and complexity, elevating the experience to the level of Michelin-starred dining.
This SPECIAL VINTAGE 2010 is a once-in-a-lifetime Malbec, a true testament to the greatness of Argentine winemaking. With only a handful of bottles available, this is your chance to own a piece of history. Secure yours before it vanishes forever.
