2022 Catena Malbec, Paraje Altamira
92 Points - Vinous: The 2022 Malbec Catena Appellation Altamira comes from the Uco Valley. Aged for up to 13 months in French oak barrels (both new and used), this purple-hued wine reveals crystal-clear, fruit-forward aromas with hints of balsamic and lavender. On the palate, it is dry, rich and juicy, delivering intense flavors and supple textures.
92 Points - James Suckling: Ripe, racy berries, potpourri, stone and a touch of white pepper follow through to a juicy, medium-bodied palate with firm tannins and a fruity, expressive finish. Attractive now, but can hold.
