Catena Zapata Adrianna Vineyard Mundus Bacillus Vino de Parcela Malbec 2020
Gualtallary, Tupungato, Valle de Uco, Tunuyán, Central Region, Mendoza, ArgentinaCatena bottles three vino de parcela malbecs from Adrianna Vineyard, located at 1450m elevation in the renowned district of Gualtallary in the Uco Valley. Mundus Bacillus Terrae is from a 1.4 hectare parcel rich in limestone and marine deposits. This is the most expensive in the range and also the most distinctive. It has restrained fruit, led by a savoury, earthy complexity of humus, peat, and menthol alongside macerated blackberries and dried lavender. It continually evolves in the glass and the seamless structure suggests this has at least a decade ahead of it. The palate is dense and mouth coating, with a remarkable concentration to the fruit without sacrificing any freshness. An impressive wine, but effortlessly so.Tasted: 13 October 2023Tasted by: Geoffrey Moss MWPrices:| BC | $324.99 | 750ml | select private retailers |
