From the Mendoza wine region, Catena Lunlunta 2016 Malbec is a fresh and expressive Malbec with bright blueberry, violets, earthy tones and savoury spice flavours on the palate. Grapes are whole-cluster fermented with 50% of the wine matured in oak. Very nicely done.
From 65 year old vines, this Malbec has a perfumed, fragrant, and highly aromatic nose that is ripe with complex notes of blackberry, stony mineral, black plum, dark berry, violet, spice, and touches of earth. The stony mineral and touches of smoke really leap out of the glass with time in the glass. It's medium-full bodied on the elegant palate with lovely dark berry, blackberry, stony mineral, violet, and spice flavours backed by fresh, balanced acidity and elegant, fine-grained tannins that have a mild grip on the back palate. Mineral, blackberry, and violets on the long, juicy, satisfying finish. Highly recommended buy to enjoy over the next 4-5 years. Score: 91+ pts
