A tribute to Malbec
Catena Zapata Malbec Argentino is a 100% Malbec made from old vines in the Nicasia and Angélica vineyards of Mendoza. The wine’s label pays tribute to the epic journey of the Malbec grape, from its noble origins in France to its rebirth at high altitude in Argentina.

Its distinctive label, illustrated by artist Rick Shaefer, depicts four female figures representing defining chapters in Malbec’s history:
- Eleanor of Aquitaine: symbolizes the birth of Malbec in the Old World, where the grape first rose to prominence.
- The Immigrant: represents the explorers and adventurers who carried Malbec across the Atlantic, ushering the variety into the New World.
- Phylloxera: personifies the devastation that erased Malbec’s dominance in France, a loss that ultimately made possible its renewal elsewhere.
- Bodega Catena Zapata: embodied by Adrianna Catena, representing the abundance of the New World and Malbec’s modern renaissance.
