NWF HOLIDAY PICKS / EXCLUSIVE OFFERS

Let's kick off the holiday season with beautiful wines from Catena Zapata at Gordon's. This Argentinian winery has been named the BEST IN THE WORLD in the 2023 World's Best Vineyards ranking. It was awarded for its excellence in winemaking, its commitment to sustainability, and its role in putting Argentinian wines on the world map. The Catena family has been stewarding their estate for multiple generations and more than a hundred years, making wines defined by thrilling balance and mineral tension.

NWF EXCLUSIVE OFFERS:

Adrianna Vineyard White Stones Chardonnay 2018 from the 'White Stones' parcel of the legendary Adrianna Vineyard. At 5,000 feet above sea level, It has distinctive floral aromas with an earthy minerality. This high altitude brings intense sunlight by day and extreme cold evenings. The unique minerality in the alluvial soil has calcareous layers, limestone and fossilized animal bones caused by intense water flow from ice melting off the Andes Mountains.`

This is an extraordinary Chardonnay - unlike any other. Vibrant, delicate, herbaceous... a show-stopper.

Catena Zapata Adrianna Vineyard White Stones Chardonnay 2018
$95.99 NET (regular $119.00 if you can find it!)

PURCHASE NOW FROM GORDON'S

Adrianna River Stones Malbec 2014 This cuvée takes its name from a small parcel of the Adrianna Vineyard that is completely covered with oval white stones and was the site of an ancient riverbed. The abundant stones provide optimal drainage and extreme temperatures. They absorb heat and moderate the nights, but also function like ice cubes after a very cold night. River Stones Malbec is extremely aromatic, rich and luxurious. This wine can be enjoyed young or aged for decades.

This is a super serious Malbec with concentration, power and great balance.

Catena Zapata Adrianna River Stones Malbec 2014
$132.99 (regularly $154.99 if you can find it!)
