Vinous
Wine rated (2025 guide) 90/100
About the wine:
The 2023 Catena Malbec, made from grapes grown in Mendoza, is a fruity wine with a hint of oak in the background, offering soft notes of caramel. On the palate, it features velvety tannins and balanced freshness, while a slight herbal note evokes the warmth of the 2023 vintage. It is an approachable, indulgent, and well-crafted wine. 2025–2034
James Suckling
Wine rated (2024 guide) 91/100
Rated "Recommended"
About the wine:
A well-balanced, fruity expression of Malbec, with notes of sweet cherries, plums, potpourri, and a hint of white pepper. Medium-bodied to full-bodied, with firm tannins and a juicy, fruity core. A succulent, medium-length finish. Ready to drink now or suitable for aging.
