Bacchus Kitchen + Wine Bar

Catena Wines

Founded in 1902 and now in its fourth generation, Bodega Catena Zapata is Argentina's most influential wine estate. By pioneering high-altitude viticulture in the Andean foothills of Mendoza, the Catena family repositioned Argentina as a serious fine wine producer — earning more 100-point ratings than any other winery in South America.
