Tasting notes
White flowers and citrus pith open onto a nose lifted by high-altitude freshness. The palate shows lemon curd, crushed stone and a creamy mid-palate without excess weight. Long, saline finish with real tension and precision.

About this wine
Catena Zapata's Adrianna Vineyard White Stones Chardonnay represents the pinnacle of Argentine white wine craftsmanship. Sourced from the prestigious Tupungato region in Mendoza, this wine exemplifies the winery's commitment to quality and innovation in South America's most celebrated wine country. Catena Zapata has established itself as a visionary producer, blending traditional winemaking expertise with modern viticulture to create wines of remarkable depth and elegance.
The White Stones vineyard sits at high altitude in Tupungato, where cool mountain breezes and mineral-rich soils impart distinctive character to the Chardonnay grapes. This terroir-driven approach yields a white wine with refined citrus notes, mineral complexity, and subtle spicy undertones that reflect the stony volcanic soils. The resulting wine is light in intensity yet concentrated in flavor, a hallmark of Catena Zapata's distinctive style.
Versatile and food-friendly, this Chardonnay pairs beautifully with shellfish, crab, lobster, and sushi, as well as delicate preparations like goat cheese, cream-based dishes, and mushroom risotto. It also complements chicken curry and citrus-based cuisines, making it an essential addition to any refined cellar or yacht provisioning collection.
