Vibrancy, balance and mountain-grown character define this celebrated Argentine Malbec from one of South America’s most influential wineries. The Bodega Catena Zapata High Mountain Vines Malbec 2024 is crafted from a blend of estate vineyards situated across Mendoza’s renowned high-altitude regions, including Gualtallary, Lunlunta and El Cepillo. These elevated vineyard sites contribute distinctive layers of fruit, freshness and structure, reflecting decades of research and exploration by the Catena family into Argentina’s mountain terroirs.
The wine is made from 100% Malbec and undergoes extended maceration followed by maturation in French oak barrels, allowing complexity and texture to develop while preserving varietal purity. The 2024 vintage showcases the hallmark elegance of Catena Malbec, combining generous fruit concentration with remarkable freshness and balance. Aromas of dark berries, violets and subtle spice lead into a richly textured palate framed by refined tannins. The high-altitude origins impart energy and precision, preventing the wine from becoming overly heavy despite its depth of flavour. Approachable upon release yet capable of further development, it remains a benchmark introduction to premium Argentine Malbec. This versatile red pairs beautifully with grilled meats, slow-cooked dishes, aged cheeses and hearty cuisine.
