New @ MLCC - ~18$ CAN. The notes and pro note is on pair with my experience, but there is a vegetal quality to the mid/late palate that is a little bitter and takes it down a notch. Otherwise flavours are dark berry/red raspberry notes with a hair bit of mocha.

Great wine for $10. Red raspberry aroma. Although very berry on the palate, Al light chocolate infusion evens it out and makes it taste like chocolate covered cherries.

Nice bottle for $10 sale price paid. Nose of earth, smoke, and dark red fruits. Medium bodied with dark red fruits--plum and black cherry--and a little oak spice. Nice value.

“Um digno produto da Catena Zapata, encorpado, com boa textura e preponderância de frutas vermelhas.”

Found this at Ralphs. Was concerned it might be too young, but found it smooth and tasty, albeit lacking much depth. Easy drinking everyday value.
