Catena Malbec 2005
Mendoza, ArgentinaCatena's insistence on less new oak, using a multitude of clones and vineyards makes its version less voluptuous, but more sophisticated assort of über cool edition. The nose is open and inviting with that savoury mix of black fruit and licorice streaked with bits of chocolate, orange and bay leaf. A stylish red wine you can drink now or age through 2015.Tasted: 23 October 2007Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:BC | $25.00 | 750ml | specialty listing |
