About this winery

When Laura Catena decided to create a line of wines of her very own, she made a conscious decision to pay tribute to the traditional, small, family, growers and to a group of special vineyard sites in Mendoza, Argentina. The name La Posta refers to La Posta del Viñotero – ‘the Tavern of the Grape Grower’, found in every local village where farmers go to get their mail after a hard day in the vineyards. There, they meet to drink wine, laugh, and tell stories, agreeing to agree or disagree...

Tasting notes

Vibrant red colour with aromas of red cherries, raspberries, ripe plums and violets along with hints of toasty oak. The palate offers fresh berry flavours with spice notes and a hint of soft caramel on the finish. A creamy, medium-bodied and well-structured wine that pairs with anything from hamburgers and chicken to pasta and mild cheeses.
