Mendoza - Red Wine -The colour is deep red, very intense with violet highlights, brilliant and seductive.
The nose is complex and intense, with notes of black fruit and dried herbs on the finish. Fine and seductive.
The palate is vinous and juicy, carried by a fine tension. Crunchy black and blue berries. Perfectly integrated tannins, long, fresh finish.
Vinification: The grapes are harvested by hand and 75% of the start of fermentation in Concrete (50% whole bunches) and 25% of the completion of fermentation in Oak Foudre (just the juice).
Maturation: 15-18 months in French oak barrels, the treatment of the oak is decided according to the characteristics of the vintage.
The Catena Family is entering its second century of winemaking in Mendoza, Argentina. Named after Nicolás Catena Zapata’s youngest daughter, the Adrianna Vineyard is located at almost 5,000 feet elevation in Mendoza. The soils in this 1.4 hectare parcel are filled with scattered limestone and marine deposits that covered the region millions of years ago. The limestone layers are well-drained and particularly rich in rhizobacteria, the microorganisms that help vine roots withstand stress and absorb nutrients. Thus, the name "mundus bacillus terrae" or "elegant microbes of the earth".
The advice of 12bouteilles.com: Open the bottle and if possible decant it at least 1 hour before the tasting so that the aromas regain their fullness. Serve chilled around 18 ° C. This bottle will be perfect with a duck breast, an "entrecôte à la bordelaise".
