Catena Alta Cabernet Sauvignon Historic Rows 2021

96 Points Vinous The 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Catena Alta, sourced from Agrelo in Luján de Cuyo, also includes 7% Cabernet Franc. Aged for up to 18 months in French oak barrels, both new and used, this garnet wine with a purple sheen reveals balsamic and spicy notes intertwined with a black fruit core. Further hints of blueberry and currants layer atop a subtle oak backdrop. Dry and plush on the palate, the juicy and supple texture lingers with a fragrant and enduring flavor—a rich yet nuanced continental Cabernet.

92 Points James Suckling Plenty of fruit with dark olives, white pepper, tamarind and lots of cherries. Fruity and juicy on the palate, showing a medium body and a firm, lightly chewy finish. Drink or hold.
