A tribute to the founder Nicola Catena: Bonarda was introduced by Italian immigrants at the end of the 19th century and became Argentina’s most widely planted red grape variety in the 1990s; it comes from vines more than 80 years old in south-eastern Mendoza. Fermentation takes place with native yeasts, followed by cold maceration in barrique and 18 months of ageing in French oak.
