Catena Zapata "Vista Flores" Malbec

A Malbec born where sunlight meets altitude. Pure energy, lifted elegance.
In the foothills of the Andes, the vineyards of Vista Flores capture a rare balance between mountain freshness and Mendoza’s generous sun. Here, at altitudes above 1,100 metres, Malbec develops a distinctive profile — vibrant yet refined, with perfumed aromatics and mineral tension that reflect its cool-climate origin. This is not the heavy Malbec of the lowlands, but one of finesse, focus, and energy.

Catena Zapata’s Appellation Vista Flores Malbec is crafted from hand-harvested grapes grown on rocky, well-drained soils. Fermented with indigenous yeasts and aged in French oak, it marries precision with character. The result is a wine that feels alive — expressive in fruit yet disciplined in structure, elegant in texture yet powerful in depth.

In the glass, it reveals deep violet hues and an aromatic profile of black cherry, wild herbs, and floral lift. The palate is both juicy and poised, showing dark berries, fine-grained tannins, and a fresh, mineral finish that lingers gracefully. For wine lovers in Ireland, Vista Flores Malbec offers an evocative taste of the Andes — a red that brings freshness, authenticity, and quiet sophistication to every table.

Why we love it:
Vista Flores Malbec bridges intensity and elegance with effortless charm. It’s a wine that feels vibrant and pure, perfect for those who love reds that balance fruit and freshness. Crafted with precision and respect for place, it captures the high-altitude soul of Mendoza.
