90

"An intense red, with concentrated flavors of dark plum, kirsch, dried beef and baker’s chocolate that are flanked by notes of tobacco leaf and ginger. The powerful finish is filled with sanguine details. Drink now through 2010. 100,000 cases imported.—K.M."

Product Description:

"The Catena Malbec presents a deep violet color. This microclimate blend of four unique vineyards offers intense aromas, a soft texture, and concentrated flavor. Deep aromas of ripe red and dark fruits are joined by delicate violet and lavender notes, with traces of vanilla and mocha. A rich, concentrated mouthfeel is highlighted by flavors of blueberries and blackberries with a touch of sweet spice, and leather. The wine finishes with bright acidity, well-integrated and silky tannins, and a flinty minerality that lingers on the palate." -Importer
