Nicolas Catena Zapata 2019
CRITIC REVIEWS
Tom Parker MW
Purple fruit and flowers give a powerful, aromatic sweetness to the nose. The palate has a graphite and dried-herb edge, which must be due to the high proportion of Cabernet Franc. Chalky and peppery through the middle, this has just the right level of edginess to make it intriguing. Layered and persistent in its floral character on the finish. (TP)

One of the classic Argentinian names, and one of the benchmark properties for the Place de Bordeaux. Very much on point in terms of estate signature - powerful, if subdued on the opening beats. This revs up through the mid palate, with grippy tannins, tons of black cherry, cassis and grilled oak, strays towards overpowered but pulls back to deliver crushed rock and black truffle on the finish. Clear ageing ability. Ungrafted vines, Fernando Buscema winemaker.
