From the renowned Adrianna and Domingo vineyards, the Catena Alta Chardonnay showcases its high-altitude excellence. Situated at nearly 5,000 feet, the Adrianna vineyard consists of pebble-strewn soil and has a cool climate, providing an idyllic environment for Chardonnay cultivation. The grapes harvested here offer a unique purity of flavors and a distinctive minerality exclusive to this remarkable terroir in Mendoza. Contrastingly, the Domingo vineyard, positioned at 3,700 feet elevation, features sandy loam soils that impart notes of white stone fruit and ensure a balanced acidity. This Chardonnay undergoes barrel fermentation in French oak, enhanced by vigorous battonage, creating a wine of exceptional depth and character.
