On the nose this wine shows an excellent mixture of citrus fruits interwoven with honeyed tropical fruits and floral tones. The mouth feel is rich and concentrated, portraying ripe pear, apple and apricot flavours with a light note of sweet nutmeg spice.
Ratings
90 Points - Wine Advocate
The 2010 Chardonnay was barrel-fermented, put through full malolactic fermentation, and aged for 9 months in 30% new French oak. The enticing nose offers up hints of toast, pear, and tropical fruits, leading to a well-balanced wine with the fruit buttressed by vibrant acidity. Drink this tasty effort over the next 3-4 years. It is an outstanding value.
Food Pairing Notes
Delightful when paired with grilled poultry or a vegetable lasagne.
Other Notes
Nestled in the foothills of the majestic Andes mountains is Nicolás Catena's new state of the art winery. The Catena Zapata winery symbolizes a family's pride in its roots and a keen desire to show to the world the uniqueness of Mendoza as a wine-producing region.
