Catena Malbec · Mendoza · 2024 · 375ml half bottle
Catena builds its wines by blending separately harvested lots from family vineyards across different terroirs and elevations. This 2024 Malbec draws on holdings in Lunlunta, El Cepillo and Gualtallary, bringing several sides of Mendoza together in one compact half bottle.
The Wine Advocate's note points to roasted herbs, graphite and subtle florals, with a soft feel, savory finish and mineral thread. The 375ml format is a smart choice when you want a glass or two with dinner without opening a full bottle.
Expert review
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 90 Points — 2024 vintage — Produced from Catena's holdings in Lunlunta, El Cepillo and Gualtallary, the 2024 Malbec is a classic expression of the variety that matured for 12 months in second- and third-use barrels. Roasted herbs, graphite and subtle floral notes mark the nose, followed by a soft, seductive mouthfeel and an even-keeled finish that lingers with savory flavors and a discreet mineral core.

Expert Reviews - Prior Vintage 2021
The Wine Advocate 91 Points The juicy and young 2021 Catena Malbec has a nice combination of spice, berry and herbs to make it balanced, expressive and attractive. It's round, velvety and nicely crafted in an easy to understand and highly drinkable style and a commercial profile. A champion in drinkability.
James Suckling 91 Points | Aromas of plums, dark cherries, blueberries, tar and crushed stones. It’s medium-bodied with round, velvety tannins. Dark-fruited and smooth.
