Description

Catena Zapata

Catena Zapata, founded in 1902 in Mendoza, Argentina, is a legendary name in the world of wine, credited with elevating Malbec to international prominence. Under the visionary leadership of Nicolás Catena and later his daughter, Laura, the winery pioneered high-altitude viticulture, particularly in the Andean foothills, redefining the potential of Argentine terroir. The Catena Zapata Malbec Argentino, one of its flagship wines, epitomizes this legacy. Crafted from old-vine vineyards like Adrianna and Nicasia, it showcases the profound depth, elegance, and complexity of Malbec, with rich black fruit, floral notes, and a signature minerality. Globally acclaimed, the wine has cemented Catena Zapata’s reputation as a benchmark producer, placing Argentine Malbec among the world’s finest expressions of red wine.
