Catena Malbec 375ml Half Bottle

For years, this has been THE benchmark Malbec and the groundbreaking trailblazing wine that changed so many perceptions about both the Malbec grape variety and Argentina. Added to this with the cliché that the best things come in small packages - this wee bottle remains one of our favourite wines. A super accompaniment to a midweek steak dinner, just enough, and not too much.

And just like its bigger bottle brethren, this has that lovely jubbly dark berry and cherry fruit with that plum,  lush texture, and balanced by a super structure and a mouth-filling richness. 

Catena has a winemaking history that very few, if any, old world wineries possess, let alone those from the new world.

Catena have achieved international recognition through their pioneering winemaking and vineyard management.

With a special relationship to the study of vines at high altitude, they are able to boast a vast range of single vineyard and single site wines across at least four different grape varieties.

The Catena quest to get the best from their land isn't a trivial or trendy fad to attract attention and critical acclaim; it really comes from a genuine belief and desire to find the latent properties that this set of terroirs can yield through the lens of each grape, Malbec, or otherwise that is planted.
