Catena Zapata is the quintessential ambassador of Argentine wine on the international stage. In the 1980s, third-generation proprietor Nicolás Catena Zapata shifted the family’s focus from mass-market brands to wines of the highest quality, establishing vineyards at higher elevations in search of cooler climates. This journey led to the planting of the La Pirámide vineyard in Agrelo, followed by the Domingo and Adrianna vineyards in Tupungato and Nicasia in Paraje Altamira. Zapata’s daughter, Laura Catena, leads the operation today, overseeing a distinguished team that includes Alejandro Vigil at the winery and Fernando Buscema at the Catena Institute of Wine. The team takes a technically driven approach, crafting excellent parcel wines such as the White Bones and White Stones Chardonnays, and the River, Fortuna Terrae and Mundus Bacillus Malbecs—wines that embody the unique character of high-altitude viticulture.
