93pts Vinous

The 2024 Rose de Provincia blends 35% Grenache, 26% Syrah, 18% Malbec, 11% Sauvignon Blanc and 10% Chenin Blanc from Altamira, Agrelo and Maipu. Salmon in hue, it delivers herbal notes with hints of ash, cherry and rose petals. Dry, vibrant and taut, this is a bright, expressive Rosé.

91pts James Suckling

This fruity rose has aromas of cherries, watermelon and grapefruit. It's fresh and tangy with a medium body and a refreshing finish.

Winemaker Notes

The delicate profile offers tart red cherry and floral aromas with creaminess and saline minerality on the palate. It is unapologetically Argentine in style.

About the Winery

Bodega Catena Zapata is one of Argentina's high altitude Malbec pioneers. The Catena family began making wine in Mendoza in 1902. Nicolas Catena, third generation family vintner, was one of the first to see the potential of Mendoza's mountain vineyards for producing high quality Malbec. In 1994, he became the first Argentine to exprot a world-class bottling of Malbec under the Catena label. Nicolas is joined by his daughter, Dr. Laura Catena, in their relentless pursuit of world-class quality from the family's high altitude vineyards. Laura has done extensive work in introducing Malbec and other varietal plant selections, soil and climate analysis, and sustainable practices throughout Mendoza. Head winemaker, Alejandro Vigil, has been at Catena Zapata since 2002 and works with Laura and Nicolas to make wines that express the family's vineyards and palate.
