Catena Alamos Torrontes

Torrontés is the unique, fragant white wine of Argentina, cultivated there since the day of the Conquistadors. Alamos Torrontés captures all of the aromatic characteristics of this Argentine grape, with lively notes of citrus and peach fruit interwoven with delicate layers of jasmine blossom and fresh herbs. The wine is light and fresh on the palate with excellent balance, finishing with bright, crisp acidity.

Bodega Catena Zapata

Bodega Catena Zapata: Malbec, Mendoza und jede Menge Mut.

Der Erfolg des fast schon sagenumwobenen argentinischen Weingutes Bodega Catena Zapata ist eng mit Nicolás Catena verbunden, der Bodega Catena Zapata seit den 1980er-Jahren zu einem Weingut von Weltrang formte. Alles begann mit dem Vorfahren Nicola Catena, der 1898 von Italien nach Argentinien, Mendoza, auswanderte. Bereits 1902 pflanzte er Malbec an – mit der Vision, dass diese Rebe in Südamerika am Fuße der Anden ihre ganze Qualität entfalten könne. Jahrzehnte später bewies Nicolás Catena, wie recht sein Vorfahre hatte.

Während einer Gastprofessur an der University of California ließ sich der Wirtschaftsprofessor in den frühen 1980er-Jahren vom Erfolg des Napa Valley inspirieren. Zurück in Argentinien arbeitete er akribisch daran, die besten Lagen für verschiedene Rebsorten in Mendoza zu identifizieren. Er scheute auch nicht davor zurück, etwa Chardonnay oder Malbec in besonderen Höhenlagen anzupflanzen – gegen den Rat vermeintlicher Weinexperten. Spektakuläre Weine wie Catena Zapata Nicasia Vineyard Malbec oder Zapata Adrianna Vineyard Malbec bewiesen schließlich, wie wertvoll Nicolás Catenas mutiger Ansatz war. Die unzähligen internationalen Auszeichnungen für Nicolás Catena sprechen für sich.

Bodega Catena Zapata steht für außergewöhnliche Weine, vorzügliche Lagen in Mendoza und auch für ein ausgeprägtes Familienbewusstsein. Zapata zum Beispiel ist der Geburtsname von Nicolás' Mutter. Die meisten Lagen tragen Familiennamen: Angélica Vineyard ist nach Nicolás Catenas Mutter benannt, Domingo Vineyard nach dem Vater, Adrianna Vineyard nach der jüngsten Tochter und Nicasia Vineyard nach der Urgroßmutter.
