 Family vintners for over 100 years, the Catenas are recognized  internationally for their pioneering role in high-altitude viticulture  and in leading Argentina’s Malbec revolution. In the 1950s, Don Domingo  began sourcing Malbec from the historic vineyards in of Vista Flores in  Tunuyán. Domingo prized the region’s Malbec above all others from its  dark color and structured tannins. Catena Malbec Appellation Vista  Flores is a wine with a pure expression of this unique terroir.  30-year-old vines give red and black fresh fruits flavors, sweet texture  and character. Cold nights lend bright, crisp acidity and the intense  sunshine give explosive floral aromatics and concentrated structure. 

Tasting Notes

The Catena Malbec Appellation Vista Flores shows a dark  violet color with black reflections. The nose offers ripe, concentrated  dark and red fruit aromas with delicate floral notes of lavender and  violet, and mocha. The mouthfeel is rich and full with notes of sweet  spice and a touch of leather. The finish presents soft, well-integrated  tannins with bright, crisp acidity that gives the wine exceptional  length.
