Product Notes

Bodega Catena Zapata White Clay Blend is a luxurious Argentinian wine with a luscious blend of vibrant floral aromas and fruity afternotes. Renowned for its superb harmony of bright acidity and fruity roundness, this complex wine presents flavours of pear, apple, and apricot tinged with subtle vanilla undertones. Its full-bodied character bodes well with the exquisite mineral precision of its origin's limestone soil. Aged in French oak barrels, it adds a charming hint of toastiness and a splendid finish. Ideal with seafood or white meats, this is an invigorating and gratifying choice for both casual and fine dining.
