Robert Parker Score: 94 points

Reviewer: Matthew Luczy — May 2025 Week 11 May 2025

Drink 2024–2031

A decidedly riper and more forward style than many of Catena Zapata's offerings, the 2023 Malbec Argentino combines ungrafted massal selections from two polar-opposite vineyard sources: the AngĂ©lica Vineyard in MaipĂș's Lunlunta district and Paraje Altamira's Nicasia Vineyard. It was vinified entirely in foudre with 20% whole clusters and aged for 12 months. The nose is deep and dark-fruited, welcomely lifted by a lovely floral component that builds with oxygen exposure. On the palate, it is velvety and rich yet impressively buoyant, transitioning to an explosive, ripe and powerful finish dominated by luscious fruits.

Wine-Searcher Aggregated Score: 95 points
