Estiba Reservada 2018 is one of Catena Zapata's historic wines. It is a classic and structured red, designed for those seeking a high-end wine with greater depth and elegance.
WINE PROFILE
It is a blend of 92% Cabernet Sauvignon and 8% Cabernet Franc. According to the official fact sheet, it undergoes 28 days of skin maceration and 18 months of aging in first-use French oak. The Cabernet Sauvignon contributes structure and concentration, while the Cabernet Franc adds freshness and complexity. The result is a full-bodied red, with rounded tannins and a serious style, more oriented towards cellaring than a simple fruity interpretation.
SUGGESTED PAIRING
It pairs very well with grilled red meats, sirloin steak, braised lamb, and slow-cooked dishes, and also accompanies more elaborate options such as meats with reduction, intense stews, or aged cheeses.
