2020 Catena Zapata Adrianna Vineyard 'Mundus Bacillus Terrae' Malbec Uco Valley Mendoza Argentina

2020 Catena Zapata Adrianna Vineyard 'Mundus Bacillus Terrae' Malbec Uco Valley Mendoza Argentina image

(97 Points) Tasting the 2020 Adrianna Vineyard Mundus Bacillus Terrae next to the 2019 showed a different aromatic profile of darker fruit, denoting ripeness and sun. The wine was still very young with a luxurious, creamy texture and mouthfeel. 2020 was an extremely dry year (70% lower than the average with just 282 liters!), and the grapes were picked two to three weeks earlier. It has a bright, saturated color and a heady nose with ripe berries and a spicy, smoky twist from 19 months in oak vats. It's medium to full bodied, with a soft texture and velvety tannins, sleek and seamless.  Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
