About this wine
Catena Zapata's Estiba Reservada from Agrelo represents the pinnacle of Mendoza winemaking, showcasing the region's ability to craft elegant, age-worthy reds. This blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, and Petit Verdot demonstrates the complexity achievable at high altitude, where cool nights and intense sunlight create balanced wines with concentrated fruit and refined structure.
The Agrelo terroir, nestled in Mendoza's prestigious wine country, imparts distinctive character to this full-bodied red. The blend delivers ripe black and red fruit notes with peppery spice, reflecting both the grape varieties and the region's signature style. At 14% ABV, the wine achieves excellent balance and approachability without sacrificing depth.
This versatile red pairs beautifully with lamb, beef, and grilled meats, while its structure handles rich accompaniments like truffles and hard cheeses with ease. An ideal selection for discerning collectors and those seeking premium Argentine wines for fine dining or special occasions.
