Catena Malbec

13.5% alcohol

Regularly $24.99, on sale for $19.99 in the second Mystery Case


Mendoza High mountain vines 2017

3rd generation family vintner and one of the pioneers for higher elevation Malbecs. Father/Daughter now bring us these wines. We first had a red from them about 3 years ago and very much enjoyed it. This is a reminder to imprint vineyard logos in your head for future reference.

Its medium bodied and mellower than its French counterparts. 3000 – 5000 feet above sea level and raised in oak for a full year. It has a nice, long finish.

I think it’s a lot of wine for its price – and exceptional value when on sale.
