92pts James Suckling

Lemons and stone with a lightly steely and creamy edge. Really bright and nervy, with a bone-dry, elegant finish. 52% semillon and 48% chenin blanc. This should age well. Drink from 2026.

Tasting Notes

Deeply aromatic with expressive citrus and peach with a rich and mineral finish. Pairs well with vegtables, pasta and grilled white meats. 

Importer Notes

Semillón and Chenin Blanc used to be the two most widely planted white grape varieties in Luján de Cuyo, Mendoza´s historical region for premium wines. Semillón came to Argentina in the 19th century and was planted in field blends with Malbec as it was in France. A century ago, the blend of Semillón and Chenin Blanc constituted the classic white wine of Argentina. Catena Appellation White Clay is our modern interpretation of this classic, a wine with intense minerality, good grip on the palate and richly textured.
