{"product_id":"catena-zapata-adrianna-white-stones-argentine","title":"Catena Zapata - Adrianna White Stones - 2023","description":"\u003cp\u003eNestled in the high Uco Valley, at the foot of the Andes Mountains, Catena Zapata's Adrianna Vineyard is located near Gualtallary, in the province of Mendoza, Argentina. Planted at a very high altitude, it benefits from sunny days, cool nights, and a dry climate that promotes slow grape ripening. The stony, calcareous soils, poor and well-drained, impart a strong mineral identity to the wine. This extreme terroir, considered one of the country's highest quality, gives birth to white wines of great precision.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Chardonnay grapes from the Adrianna White Stones parcel are hand-harvested in small crates, then carefully sorted before gentle whole-cluster pressing. The must is then barreled for slow alcoholic fermentation in French oak barrels, mostly used, with a varying proportion of new wood depending on the vintage, often accompanied by partial malolactic fermentation. Aging continues on fine lees in barrels for several months, with measured bâtonnage, to preserve the mineral tension and aromatic purity of the high-altitude calcareous terroir.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis wine reveals notes of \u003cstrong\u003eripe citrus\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003estone fruit\u003c\/strong\u003e, and \u003cstrong\u003egreen apple\u003c\/strong\u003e, complemented by delicate \u003cstrong\u003efloral\u003c\/strong\u003e touches, \u003cstrong\u003echalky mineral\u003c\/strong\u003e nuances, and a subtle woodiness with hints of \u003cstrong\u003evanilla\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003etoasted hazelnut\u003c\/strong\u003e.
