the 2019 nicolás catena zapata was produced with 42% cabernet sauvignon from gualtallary (adrianna vineyard) and 30% malbec from altamira (nicasia vineyard) and a high percentage of cabernet franc (28%) also from adrianna, which took the place of cabernet sauvignon. it fermented in small oak barrels, concrete and stainless steel tanks with a short post-fermentative maceration. élevage was in first and second use french oak barrels and lasted for 18 months, including malolactic. this is always quite classical in style, with some spiciness from the barrels and hints of smoke and toast, still very young and undeveloped. it has the traditional bordeaux blend character and is herbal, floral and spicy, with a beautiful texture, very nice balance and very fine, chalky tannins. 2019 was a very dry year, and the berries were small, very healthy and delivered powerful wines. it's 13.7% alcohol and has mellow acidity and good freshness, reflecting a relatively cool season, coming though as elegant and balanced with the stuffing and balance to develop nicely over the years in bottle. 66,000 bottles produced. it was bottled in january 2021.
