VinoUS Media Review
Rated 93
The 2024 Malbec Appellation Lunlunta comes from Luján de Cuyo and was aged 11-13 months in French oak barrels (25-40% new, plus second- and third-use wood). Highly expressive, it opens with clear violet notes and fresh plum, framed by refined oak. It is dry, juicy and supple, with fine, flexible tannins and an enveloping flow. A classic Lujan de Cuyo Malbec. Drink Date: 2026-2046.
Wine Tasting Notes
The Catena Zapata Appellation Lunlunta Malbec shows a deep violet color with purple reflections. The nose offers concentrated aromas of ripe red and dark fruits with traces of vanilla and mocha. The mouthfeel is rich and concentrated, with blueberries and blackberries notes and a touch of leather and cinnamon. The finish presents well integrated supple tannins with a flinty minerality that gives the wine exceptional length.
The Catena Zapata Appellation Lunlunta Malbec perfectly pairs with smoked meats and cheeses and equally well with braises, roasts or grilled meats and fowl. Perfect for a light dinner or a substantial meal, it is an extremely versatile wine that can be enjoyed with or without food.
