DESCRIPTION

The Catena Zapata Malbec Argentino 2022 is a flagship expression of Argentine Malbec, crafted from old-vine fruit sourced from the historic Angélica and Nicasia vineyards in Mendoza. Deep and intensely perfumed, it reveals layers of violets, cassis, blackberry, spice, and hints of cocoa, unfolding into a rich yet polished palate with fine-grained tannins and remarkable length. Aged in French oak for added complexity, this highly acclaimed vintage—scoring up to 98 points from critics—captures the elegance, power, and high-altitude character that has made Catena Zapata one of Argentina’s most iconic estates.

Expert Notes

Robert Parker: 93

The 2022 Malbec Argentino combines destemmed fruit from Lunlunta's Angélica Vineyard and Nicasia Vineyard in Altamira, and it was fermented with whole clusters. It leads with a rich, savory, black-fruited nose, introducing a similarly assertive and voluptuous palate. It concludes with a lush, staining and drying finish that retains the fine-grained precision that runs through the Catena Zapata roster.

James Suckling: 98

Elegant and perfumed nose with violets, spices, fresh blackberries, blueberries and touches of chiles, chocolate, cigar box and white pepper. Super juicy on the palate with compact, fine tannins and an extremely long finish.
