WINEMAKING
Hand-harvested grapes undergo careful manual selection, controlled alcoholic fermentation with temperature management, and periodic cap management during maceration. After fermentation, the wine completes malolactic fermentation and is aged in oak barrels before bottling to enhance balance and complexity.

"DV Catena Cabernet Sauvignon-Malbec is an elegant and complex wine, ruby red in color with violet hues. On the nose, intense and concentrated, it presents notes of spices provided by the Cabernet Sauvignon from the La Pirámide vineyard, and notes of ripe blackberries and plums, characteristic of the Malbec from the Angélica vineyard, accompanied by vanilla, tobacco, and liqueur provided by oak aging. On the palate, it has a sweet impact and great complexity, with integrated and round tannins, and a long and persistent finish. "
