Family vintners for over 100 years, the Catenas are recognized for their pioneering role in high-altitude viticulture and in leading Argentina's Malbec revolution. In the 1950´s, Don Domingo Catena began sourcing Malbec from the historic vineyards of Vista Flores. Domingo prized the region's Malbec for its dark colored and structured tannins.
Tangy white pepper, cherries, berries and a touch of graphite. Quite firm and expressive, with lovely fluidity and firm tannins. Juicy and really well-balanced. Excellent length and drinkability from this vintage. Delicious now, but can hold.

A rich, dark-plum and purple-berry nose here with violets and spiced currants, as well as freshly baked biscuits. The palate has such clarity and openness with smoothly delivered, fresh, ripe plums at the gently spicy finish. Drink now.

A solid malbec with quite a firm, linear flow to it, with blackberry, black-tea and blueberry undertones. It’s medium-bodied with firm tannins and a fresh, racy finish. Delivers finesse at the end.

Now there's also a 2021 Appellation Vista Flores Malbec from the collection of IG wines. It was produced with grapes from loamy soils with rounded stones at 1,100 meters above sea level. It fermented in stainless steel and matured in French oak barrels, 35% of them new, for 12 months. It has moderate 13.7% alcohol and very good acidity and freshness, reflecting a cool vintage, with varietal notes of violets, berries and herbs and a medium-bodied palate with fine tannins.

A fresh and very well-made malbec with some roasted sweet spices, violets, hazelnuts and blue fruits. Tannins are really soft and dusty on the medium-bodied palate. Elegant, scented and long, although there is not a lot of depth and gravity in the center palate. Delicious now.
