Catena Alta Malbec 2021

From one of Argentina’s most established producers, Catena Alta Malbec 2021 brings together fruit from five carefully selected parcels to create a full-bodied red with depth and structure. This 2021 vintage reflects the Catena winery’s long-standing role in shaping modern Argentinian winemaking under Nicolás Catena, with the estate now led by fourth-generation winemaker Dr Laura Catena.

The wine shows concentrated cassis and blackcurrant, layered with notes of chocolate, vanilla and black pepper. Its richness and complexity make it a natural partner for chargrilled steak and other robust dishes.
