This is the Catena Zapata family top wine. It is a "Bordeaux" blend, consisting mainly of Cabernet Sauvignon. The history of this wine dates back to 1990, when Dr. Nicolás Catena Zapata decided to launch a high-end Cabernet Sauvignon that could compete with the best Cabernet in the world. Nicolás Catena Zapata had always been a great admirer and collector of the red wines of Bordeaux and Napa Valley.

Bonarda was brought by the Italian immigrants at the end of the 19th century, becoming in the 90's the most cultivated red grape in Argentina. Bonarda is a late-ripening grape variety that adapts well to light soils. It grows best in southeast Mendoza, where medium temperatures allow for optimal grape maturity.

Located in the far southerly growing region of Altamira en La Consulta, the Nicasia vineyard is the only planting of the special Catena Selection of Malbec cuttings in this traditional area for Malbec. La Consulta was Nicolás Catena’s father Domingo’s prefered Malbec location.
