DV Catena Tinto Histórico: Elegance and Sophistication for Fine Dining
Discover the essence of Argentina's finest wines with DV Catena Tinto Histórico Paraje Altamira, a blend that celebrates Mendoza's rich winemaking tradition. Crafted with a meticulous combination of 75% Malbec, 19% Bonarda, and 6% Petit Verdot, this wine showcases the mastery and expertise of Catena Zapata. Aged for 12 to 14 months in French oak barrels selected based on harvest characteristics, followed by 10 months of bottle aging, it delivers a truly unique sensory experience.
On the nose, it reveals intense aromas of black fruits and flowers, while the palate surprises with great volume, freshness, and vibrant fruit notes. Its perfect balance of body and acidity makes it a versatile and sophisticated choice.
Ideal for pairing with haute cuisine dishes from the U.S., this wine enhances creations such as Beef Wellington with foie gras and mushroom duxelles, rack of lamb glazed with pomegranate reduction and parsnip purée, or modern-style Peking duck with plum sauce. It also pairs exceptionally well with herb-crusted filet mignon with truffled potato foam or venison with cranberry sauce, chestnut purée, and roasted vegetables.
This blend is a masterpiece that reflects Catena Zapata's passion and dedication. Perfect for those seeking a luxurious gastronomic experience paired with a world-class wine. Add it to your table and amaze your guests!
