CATA'S NOTES

This wine is of an intense purple color.

The nose has clear mineral notes combined with black fruits, cassis and cedar, while aging in new French oak barrels adds some touches of sweet cocoa.

The palate is a wine of great structure and power, it is strong and persistent. The alcohol is in perfect harmony with the acidity of the wine, which is evident in the elegance and smoothness of its finish, thanks to the quality of Vistalba's 80-year-old vineyards that are the heart of this beloved Malbec, the best ours.
