{"product_id":"catena-zapata-nicolas-argentine","title":"Catena Zapata - Nicolas - 2021","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis cuvée comes from the high-altitude vineyards of Mendoza, in the Uco Valley. It blends the Adrianna cru, in Gualtallary, perched at 1,450 metres on gravelly limestone soils, and Nicasia, in Paraje Altamira, at 1,095 metres, where gravels mingle with sand and silt. These mountain plots, planted with ungrafted pre-phylloxera massal selections, bring freshness, mineral relief and depth to the wine.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe grapes are harvested by hand. Fermentation lasts around 15 days at 26–28 °C, in small oak barrels, concrete tanks and stainless-steel tanks. Total maceration lasts 18 to 22 days. After malolactic fermentation, the wine is aged for 18 months in French oak barrels, before final blending and bottling.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis wine reveals notes of \u003cstrong\u003eblackcurrant\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eblackberry\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eblack cherry\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eredcurrant\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eeucalyptus\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003ethyme\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003esweet tobacco\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003ecigar box\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eblack pepper\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003ecedar\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003evanilla\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003edark chocolate\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003esaline minerality\u003c\/strong\u003e.
