Catena Zapata Appellation Lunlunta Malbec captures the spirit of old-vine Mendoza fruit with elegance and depth. Sourced from 1930s vineyards at 920 meters, this Malbec reveals aromas of ripe berries, herbs, and sweet spice, followed by layers of blueberry, blackberry, mocha, and flinty minerality. The palate is fresh and balanced, with supple tannins and a refined finish that pairs beautifully with roasted meats, aged cheeses, or hearty stews.

Jeb Dunnuck Review Rated 94 The 2022 Malbec Appellation Lunlunta is a departure from its appellation companions, floral in rose and violet with shocks of black and white pepper. From a vineyard planted in the early 1920s, it has layers of texture and length, with underlying structure that keeps the medium-bodied power graceful in the glass. Age through 2037. Drink Date: 2025-2037.
Wine Tasting Notes The Catena Zapata Appellation Lunlunta Malbec shows a deep violet color with purple reflections. The nose offers concentrated aromas of ripe red and dark fruits with traces of vanilla and mocha. The mouthfeel is rich and concentrated, with blueberries and blackberries notes and a touch of leather and cinnamon. The finish presents well integrated supple tannins with a flinty minerality that gives the wine exceptional length.
The Catena Zapata Appellation Lunlunta Malbec perfectly pairs with smoked meats and cheeses and equally well with braises, roasts or grilled meats and fowl. Perfect for a light dinner or a substantial meal, it is an extremely versatile wine that can be enjoyed with or without food.
