Higher. That's where the pleasure is. That's where the excitement is.
It can be the same with wine.
High elevation vines pass on a flavor that not only stimulates the senses with an added flair of intensity and brilliance, but it also imparts a lingering, taste-altering performance that makes other wines pale in comparison.
This Wednesday, for our Wine Flight Weds, we'll be featuring a stellar line-up of Malbecs, with the star, the showboat, the anchor to the line-up being, Catena's Alta Malbec.
Catena's Alta Malbec is sourced from small, carefully selected estate grown lots high up in the Andes mountain range (between 3000 - 5000 feet). Altitude becomes the determining factor in obtaining grapes of intense concentration, body, and flavor. Since there's no cooling influence from the ocean to help with grape development, they rely on the elevation to provide the perfect component to producing wines of enormous magnitude.
