90 Stephen Tanzer - Vinous Media

"Bright ruby-red. Expressive nose melds kirsch, black raspberry, licorice, violet and graphite. Quite graceful on the palate, at once liqueur-like and energetic, with flavors of currant, cedar and graphite spreading out to saturate the palate. Finishes sweet, juicy and long, with a hint of dried herbs contributing lift. Winemaker Alejandro Vigil is able to moderate alcohol and acidity levels in his red wines through what he describes as a "differentiated harvest."

Product Description:

"The Catena Cabernet Sauvignon shows a dark ruby color with violet tones. On the nose, it offers intense aromas of ripe raspberries and cassis with notes of black pepper, cloves and touch of fresh thyme. On the palate, it is full and rich and displays layers of black currant with notes of cedar, oregano and graphite. This Cabernet Sauvignon is an elegant wine with tannins that provide structure and a bright, long, persistent finish." - Importer
