Winery - Catena

April 4, 2010
An outstanding Malbec from a legend in Argentine wine-making. Nicolas Catena was cited as Decanter Magazine's 2009 Man of the Year. The wine itself was rated #69 out of the top 100 wines of the year by Wine Spectator. Charged with a full-bodied and long lasting finish, Catena's nose and taste have strong black fruit, with a bit of oak and maybe a hint of spice. It is a brilliant wine by itself, or with your favorite cut of beef. AND it's only $15-$20!!! Don't miss this wine, or the vintage. Highly recommended.

The color of this wine is a deep rich purple. This wine did not pop when you first taste it, it is very smooth. I really like this one.

The 2005 Catena Malbec has a deep, dark violet color, with pronounced blackish-purple tones. The aromatic structure is full of ripe dark fruits, floral notes of violets and lavender, and touches of vanilla and spice. The palate begins with sweet black cherry fruits and has a generous texture. There are marked mineral notes as well as layers of chocolate and spicy black pepper. The finish is soft and sweet with ripe tannins and vibrant acidity.
