El Enemigo Malbec
Tasting Note
A high-altitude Malbec with delicate aromas of violet, plum and subtle herbal tones. The juicy, yet firm palate offers layers of ripe red fruit, liquorice, ginger and vanilla supported by fine-grained tannins and a distinctive mineral finish.
Producer
El Enemigo was founded in 2010 by Adrianna Catena, daughter of Nicolás Catena Zapata, along with Alejandro Vigil, the award-winning head winemaker of Bodega Catena Zapata. The El Enemigo vineyards are located in the Piedemonte al Sur region of Mendoza, south of Luján de Cuyo, at high altitudes between 930 and 1,470 metres. El Enemigo was born from a desire to carve their own path and a shared obsession with terroir. They thrive in the thrill of experimentation, and delight in the new and unconventional. Their philosophy is to create wines that reflect the freshness and character of each individual vineyard: a pure expression of their exceptional terroir. The name "El Enemigo", which translates as ‘the enemy’, is a nod to the internal battles and challenges they faced in their pursuit of excellence in winemaking, and to the idea of challenging the status quo. Their captivating wines are highly sought-after. Recently, El Enemigo was awarded 17th place in the Top 100 of the World's Best Vineyards Awards 2025.
