  Quite fine, aging has helped -- last of the 2006 in the cellar, and I'm glad I let it sit. Drink any left in storage now...

  Found a last bottle of the 2006 hidden away in store. Lovely nose, good colour, soft sweet berry and mulberry fruit. Excellent balance. Not overly complex but still a lovely wine after 8 years.
  For me, there are few wines from excellent S. American producers like Catena Zapata that don't repay keeping for at least 5-6 years, even at the lower end of the price scale. Excellent value if you can wait (and store it well)…...
