Description

Catena Zapata Chardonnay 2023 750ml is a premium Argentinian Chardonnay crafted from high-altitude vineyards in Mendoza, where the cool Andean climate and elevated vineyard sites produce grapes of exceptional freshness and intensity. Sourced from a selection of the Catena family’s renowned mountain vineyards, the wine is fermented in French oak barrels and matured on its lees for up to 12 months, enhancing texture, complexity, and elegance while preserving the purity of the fruit. The 2023 vintage is a beautifully balanced expression of Mendoza Chardonnay, showcasing vibrant fruit, refined minerality, and the world-class craftsmanship for which Catena Zapata is celebrated.

The nose reveals expressive aromas of ripe pear, white peach, citrus blossom, and tropical fruit, complemented by delicate notes of vanilla, toasted hazelnut, and fresh brioche. On the palate, flavours of lemon curd, crisp apple, honey, and stone fruit are beautifully balanced by vibrant natural acidity, a creamy mouthfeel, and distinctive mineral freshness. The finish is long, elegant, and refined with lingering citrus and subtle oak spice. Catena Zapata Chardonnay 2023 pairs beautifully with grilled lobster, seafood, roast chicken, creamy pasta dishes, mushroom risotto, and mature soft cheeses.
