A joint venture between Adrianna Catena, daughter of Nicolas Catena, and Alejandro Vigil, Chief Winemaker at Bodega Catena Zapata, El Enemigo Malbec is produced at Piedemonte al Sur, located in the southern foothills of Uco Valley, Mendoza. The facility is named for the unique aspect of Mendoza's high-altitude winemaking region nestled in the foothills of the Andes Mountains.
Tasting Notes: El Enemigo Malbec displays rich and concentrated aromas of black fruit such as cherries and berries. It's full-bodied with spice, blackberry, black cherry, pepper, and floral notes leading into an elegant and lengthy finish.
Food Pairing: Pair this wine with rodizio, Lyonnaise sauces, grilled steaks, and barbecued ribs.
Critical Acclaim
90 points Tim Atkin, MW
The basic El Enemigo Malbec has done wonders for both the variety and the image of the Uco Valley, both in Argentina and overseas. Co-fermented with 10% Cabernet Franc, this was picked in five different stages to build layers of flavour in the resulting wine. Floral, juicy, and sappy, it has fine-grained tannins and layers of bramble, tarragon and black cherry. -Tim Atkin, MW (6/2025)
92 points Wine Advocate
The 2022 Malbec hails from Adrianna Vineyard, contains 10% Cabernet Franc and was fermented entirely whole clusters before maturing for 15 months in foudre, tank and barrel. The bouquet starts with a poised interplay between herbal and floral elements, with a core of black fruits, followed by a rich, fluid and seamless palate. It concludes with an intensely savory, earth-tinged finish framed with grippy, refined tannins. (5/2025)
