 Catena Zapata Alta Chardonnay 2010
Mendoza, Argentina
"The 2010 Alta Catena Chardonnay includes just a touch of botrytis that Alejandro Vigil believes adds a little complexity. That is evident on the bouquet, which offers wild honey, jasmine, nectarine and crushed stone aromas that are well-defined. The palate has good weight on the entry, with subtle notes of orange zest, dried apricot, quince and shaved ginger. It builds in the mouth, delivering a very focused, intense finish that you could say, sits comfortably between Old World and New. Drink now-2017+ "

 Wine Spectator's James Molesworth said of Catena, "In Argentina, Bodega Catena Zapata is the undisputed heavyweight champ. The winery, led by Nicolas Catena, is the equivalent of the Rhone's E. Guigal: a multi-generation, family-owned winery that is clearly the industry leader, yet never rests on its laurels. Those who grumble about its dominating position in the Argentine wine industry are usually those who are trying to play catch up. Catena's operation is the engine that drives quality in Argentina." Catena has always been working in the vineyards and now Team Alejandro is in charge. That's Alejandro Sejanovich, 40, the head viticulturist who started at the winery in 1994, along with Alejandro Vigil, 34, head winemaker, who started at the winery in 2002. While the two have distinct titles, their job responsibilities overlap-they're both coviticulturists and winemakers, and they work closely together in the vineyards and winery. And both take the same analytical approach to wine. They always start with a theory when they approach a problem, but they also aren't afraid to take risks, which fits right in line with the approach of Catena, a former economics professor, and his daughter Laura, whose day job when not working at the winery or on her own Luca label, is as an emergency room physician in San Francisco. They all contribute to the success story of Catena. In the Mid-1990's the Catenas identified the best vineyard rows of Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay and Malbec and made the first vintages of the Catena Alta wines in very small quantities. Catena Alta continues to be a limited production of single varietal wines made from a selected few rows in the Catena family's vineyards. These special barrels undergo a rigorous second selection at the winery. Catena Alta Chardonnay is made from a special lot, rows 5 through 38, of the Adrianna vineyard. |
