About this product

Nicolas Catena Zapata 2016 13.5% 75cl Winery: Nicolas Catena Zapata Grape Variety: 61% Cabernet Sauvignon, 31% Malbec, 8% Cabernet Franc Region: Mendoza, Argentina Alcohol Content: 13.6% Food Pairing: Mild cheese or casseroles. Description: Colour is Intense, deep purple with bluish-black tones. On the nose Aromas of black fruits – blackberries, black cherries, black plums – predominate with subtle notes of vanilla and dark chocolate intermingled with savoury hints of green olive and a stony minerality. On the palate wine is tremendously complex, unfolding layer upon layer of red currant, eucalyptus, and black pepper flavours . Black cherries and blackberries give way to cassis followed by a hint of saline minerality. The wine is remarkably concentrated with a firm tannic structure providing the backbone for the lush fruit. The finish is long, a foretoken of the long aging potential of this Argentine masterpiece.
