Bodega Catena Zapata
Catena Mendoza Malbec
Mendoza, Cuyo, Argentina
Classic BBQ wine, this entry level Malbec from Catena (£13) has cherry and black currant notes with a slight savoury edge. While quite a bold wine, the alcohol is well integrated and perfect to drink now.

Nice accompaniment to beef stew with carrots, smashed potatoes, a side of caramelized onions and a creamed horseradish.

Blackberry, mocha and tomato flavors. You may think it's an odd combination. It is. But it works. The finish is tangy, but silky.

Dusty and bold, but not too bold. Subtle hints of spice with a bit of cherry. Very good Malbec.
