Robert Parker

"The 2013 Catalpa Malbec is fresh and floral, with just a hint of spice (only 50% of the wine is aged in barrels). The palate is equally fresh, with good acidity and very fine tannins. A refined and pleasant Malbec, easy to drink and offering good value for money. " (Wine Advocate 2015 - Robert Parker) A racy and very elegant Argentine Malbec!
