"Color: dark; Nose: fragrant; Acidity: lively; Body: full-bodied; Overall: bold; Was very tight when first opened bottle. As time progressed, the flavors came together and tannins eased up to make it a very enjoyable wine."

"The 2006 Catena Malbec shows a dark violet color with deep bluish – black tones. The nose offers ripe, concentrated dark fruit aromas with delicate floral notes and traces of vanilla and mocha. The mouthfeel is rich and lush, with concentrated black cherry and red currant fruit flavors layered with sweet spices, tobacco and a touch of leather. The finish presents soft, supple tannins with bright, crisp acidity and a flinty minerality which gives the wine exceptional length."
