Fortuna Terrae means luck of the land, and the Catena family believes that the vines from this parcel of the Adrianna Vineyard are lucky. The deep loamy soils are home to many varieties of native grasses which prevent erosion and attract insects, singing birds and mountain foxes. Because of the freshness imparted by the soils and high altitude, this intensely aromatic wine has optimal acidity, with delicate violet and aromas, alongside raspberry coulis, blackberry, purple plum and mint character, with black tea, spice, and wet stone flavours. It has a full-bodied, silky-smooth texture with firm tannins and a lingering finish. This wine is a true expression of a unique terroir, as well as Catena Zapata's exceptional winemaking. From the Gualtallary district of Tupungato, Uco Valley, at 1,366m elevation.

Winemaking
