Catena Zapata – Nicasia Vineyard – Malbec 2007 – Altamira – Mendoza

The nose is fruity, elegant, concentrated and relatively complex. It reveals notes of blackberry cream, mocha, wood and crushed raspberry, combined with slight notes of black cherry, sweet spices, cardamom as well as a discreet hint of rocky earth and graphite. The palate is fruity, fine, fluid, very elegant, well balanced, concentrated, powerful, supple and offers fat, a beautiful roundness and a great and nice structure. In the mouth this wine expresses notes of blackberry, black cherry, sweet fruits and chocolate / mocha combined with a touch of espresso, wood as well as a discreet hint of coconut and an imperceptible hint of butter. Tannins are moderately fine, elegant and supple. Good length and beautiful persistence.
