Grape

Syrah or Shiraz

Origin
Made with Syrah grapes sourced from exceptional parcels of fruit and matured for 16 months in a mixture of new and used American oak barrels, this wine was named in honour of Domingo V. Catena, Nicolás' father.
Taste
Deep violet in colour, the nose is focused with ripe blueberry and plum intermingled with subtle leather, vanilla and tobacco notes. A complex and fruit driven palate, the finish is long and lingering.
Enjoy
This wine deserves to be served with rich beef casseroles, hung game, or rare fillet steak.

    Nothing special

    Plenty of complexity, but closed and didn't really open up even with aeration and a few hours to develop. Maybe it needs time, but I found it lacking as it is now.

    Yee Haa!

    Yet another triumph of Majestic's tasting counter. Their description of the wine pretty much spot on, with one glaring omission. Drink this wine on its own, forget the food!
