I know that Catena is widely popular for its malbec but they do make awesome well priced cabernets like this one...

Really happy with this wine. Starts off great without any breathing time. Don't let it breath more than 2 hours.
I get berry and leather.
Paired it with a steak, and grilled halloumi cheese.

It's been a long while since I've had a Catena red. They veered a little too much into the cherry-cola- sweetness infected wines for several years. Not sure why, their wines in the '90s were great. So here is the 2014, a ripe (nearly too ripe) cabernet, but mercifully avoiding the confection of some past efforts. Smooth, with some fine tannin. Good wine, best with rich stews. Tasted Oct 2016.
