Argentina in 2016.

The wettest modern Mendoza vintage, and the hardest. Yields collapsed, and what was made is lean and fresh rather than ripe.

A single block of the Adrianna Vineyard at 1,450 metres, on limestone, named for the soil bacteria that make it. Catena’s grand cru, and a perfect score in 2021.

Condition is described before anything travels: fill level, label, capsule and original case, bottle by bottle. If you have not bought an older bottle before, our note on fill levels explains what those words mean and what they are worth. The 2016 leaves storage once, insured and temperature-controlled, for your home, your cellar or your account at a bonded warehouse in Switzerland.
