Wine Description:
Catena Appellation Paraje Altamira Malbec is a premium wine produced by the renowned Catena family in Argentina. The wine is made from Malbec grapes grown in the high-altitude vineyards of the Paraje Altamira appellation, known for its unique terroir and ideal growing conditions. The vineyards are characterized by their stony soils, which provide excellent drainage and impart mineral notes to the wine. The winemaking process involves careful selection of the grapes, followed by fermentation in small batches and aging in French oak barrels. The resulting wine is a complex and elegant expression of Malbec, with notes of dark fruit, spice, and a long, smooth finish. It is a perfect choice for wine enthusiasts looking for a high-quality, terroir-driven wine from Argentina.
