CATENA ZAPATA | MALBEC 2022 75cl

Catena Malbec 2022 is a dry red wine produced by Bodega Catena Zapata in the Mendoza region of Argentina. Sourced from vineyards in Lunlunta, El Cepillo, and Gualtallary, where alluvial soils and a continental climate contribute freshness and concentration to the wine.

The harvest is done manually, with a careful selection of clusters. The grapes ferment with native yeasts, followed by 11 to 13 months of aging in first, second, and third-use French oak barrels, allowing the wine to develop its characteristic complexity and elegance.
