Catena Zapata Argentino Malbec Vertical Tasting An exploration of time, terroir, and stewardship. This vertical tasting of Catena Zapata Argentino Malbec offers a rare opportunity to experience the evolution of one of Argentina's most iconic wines across nearly two decades.
Guests are presented with six vintages, each poured at two ounces, allowing for a thoughtful comparison and unrushed appreciation. Every bottle has been cellared in our private cellar single its original release, carefully preserved to honor the wine's natural arc. Spanning vintages from 2005, 2006 through 2019, the tasting reveals how altitude, climate, and patience shape expression over tine - structure yielding to elegance, fruit deppening into complexity, and place becoming unmistakably clear.
Sourced, among others, from the Adrianna Vineyard and tasted side by side, this is not merely a comparison of years, but a conversation with history - intended for those who appreciate wine as a living record of time well kept.
