The wine:

Malbec Aruma is made from Malbec grapes that come from four different parcels. Each parcel adds its own character to the final wine. The grapes are selected by hand, and fermentation takes place in steel tanks. Half of the must is aged for 8 months in oak casks to add more complexity to the wine. The remaining part of the must is stored in steel tanks, adding freshness and pure fruit.

Wine house:

In 1999, a team from Domaines Barons de Rothschild (Lafite) headed by Christophe Salin traveled back from Los Vascos in Chile towards France to Mendoza in Argentina. The team was not looking for a new partner in South America, but from a mutual acquaintance they had heard the rumor that had spread like wildfire around the world about Nicolas Catena's Argentinian wine. They wanted to meet him. Nicolas organized a vertical tasting for them with Cabernet Sauvignon and Malbec. When Christophe tasted the 1993 Catena Cabernet Sauvignon, he was struck by the wine's elegance, and at the same time the interest in trying Malbec was piqued. During visits to various wineries, Nicolas revealed his great admiration for Lafite to Christophe. It was the beginning of a friendship based on mutual respect and admiration.
