VINTAGES is pleased to offer this collection of wines from Argentina’s most inspiring family. Nicolás Catena, the patriarch, was named Decanter’s 2009 Man of the Year for “changing the direction of Argentina’s wine industry.” His daughter, Laura, wrote the book on Argentina’s modern wine scene—literally—with the aptly titled Vino Argentino hitting bookstores this year.
While Bodega Catena Zapata’s landmark Argentine wines continue to dazzle, Laura is generating excitement with her Luca wines, a special project using fruit from old-vines vineyards. Her vision for a new breed of Argentine wines: small quantities, artisan quality, and true to their individual terroirs.
