DV Catena Cabernet-Malbec

WINE DESCRIPTION

Of a deep red colour with light violet hues, the nose is focused with concentrated spice Cabernet fragances from La Pirámide vineyard, and ripe blackberry Malbec flavours from Angélica, in Lunlunta. Barrel aging adds subtle notes of vainilla, tobacco and liqueur, making this wine particularly complex and elegant. Starts sweet and fruity followed by complex spice and oak and a long lingering finish of round, soft tannins. A perfect match with beef, game and sophisticated dishes.
