Catena Zapata Adrianna Vineyard River Malbec 2020
This cuvée is named after a small parcel in the Adrianna vineyard that is completely covered with white oval stones and was the site of an ancient river bed. The abundant stones provide optimal drainage and extreme temperatures. These stones absorb heat, moderate the nights, and function as ice cubes after a very cold night. Stony soil Malbecs tend to be extremely aromatic, rich and luxurious, just like Adrianna's River Stones Malbec. This wine can be enjoyed young or aged for decades.

Bouquet

On the nose, aromas of crushed berries, accompanied by notes of liquorice and black tea.

Flavour

On the palate, the wine has extremely fine tannins and a long finish.
