This is part 2 with Dr Laura Catena and we are going deeper into what makes great wines: Terroir. And this takes us to THE ADRIANNA VINEYARD: the vineyard, situated in the Gualtallary sub-region of the Tupungato region (which in itself is part of the Uco Valley) lies at almost 5,000 feet in elevation. This is considered to be the most studied vineyard in the world, and their discoveries are fascinating. Both Laura and her father Nicolas have moved the bar for Malbec and premium winemaking in Argentina and so this episode Laura tells us more stories of what is was like working with her father, how he ‘cheated’ her into the world of wine, how they have pushed the boundaries and you will of course learn about some of the most exciting wines coming out of this very special vineyard.
