Tasting Note

Don Domingo Vicente Catena, Nicolas Catena Zapata's father, was famous in the 1930's for his deep dark red wine blend. This blend was sold in the French-styled bistros of Buenos Aires - the Paris of South America - as the finest wine from the Mendoza region. This glorious blend of Malbec and Petit Verdot, harvested from four disctinct vineyards in different passes for optimum ripeness, has oodles of character: jam-packed with blackberry and black cherry, with notes of violet and white pepper.

Product Notes

Bodega Catena Zapata D.V. Catena Tinto Histórico is an Argentine red blend that celebrates the family’s winemaking heritage. Typically crafted from Malbec, Bonarda, and Petit Verdot, it brings together fruit sourced from vineyards in Mendoza. The wine offers aromas of ripe blackberries, plums, and cherries, complemented by floral notes and hints of spice, chocolate, and oak. On the palate, it is generous and rounded, with smooth tannins, balanced acidity, and a lingering finish. Its layered character makes it a versatile companion to grilled meats, roasted vegetables, empanadas, and aged cheeses. Enjoy it now or allow it to develop with careful cellaring.
