CATENA - Alta Cabernet Sauvignon - 2018

CATENA

Alta Cabernet Sauvignon 2018

- 91 points -

Much smaller in size than the Historic Rows Malbec, this only comes from three areas of
Mendoza - Agrelo, Paraje Altamira and Villa Bastías - and has 7% Cabernet Franc for an
added dimension. Plush, supple and sweet, it has succulent cassis and blackberry fruit, fine tannins, some toasty new oak and balancing acidity.
