When Laura Catena decided to create a line of wines of her very own, she made a conscious decision to pay tribute to the traditional, small, family, growers and to a group of special vineyard sites in Mendoza, Argentina. The name La Posta refers to La Posta del Viñotero – ‘the Tavern of the Grape Grower’, found in every local village where farmers go to get their mail after a hard day in the vineyards. There, they meet to drink wine, laugh, and tell stories, agreeing to agree or disagree...

Oak regimen: 50% aged in french oak barrels during 8 months, 15% new barrel and 35% second and third use barrels, 50% Stainless steel tanks.
Aromas of red cherries, raspberries, and violets along with notes of toasty oak. On the palate, fresh berries with spice and a hint of soft caramel on the finish. It goes great with everything from meats, to pasta, to mild cheeses. Unique recipe ideas include: Lamb burger with Manchego and Smoked Paprika, or Caramelized Onion and Butternut Squash Tart.
Spiced cherries, blueberries, coffee and a hint of hazelnuts. Fluid and crunchy on the medium-bodied palate with firm, gritty tannins followed by a medium-length finish. Fresh, light and elegant, but nicely drinkable
