82% Grenache • 18% Mourvèdre • This wine was aged for 42 months in a combination of 1 year old hogsheads, and 600 and 800 liter demi-muid. The wine was bottled without fining or filtration. It attacks the palate with amazing fruit, complexity, structure and concentration. — 11 years ago

I received a selection of Catena wines following an interview with Dr. Laura Catena (to her credit, she's an amazing person and a part time ER doc). Her 2014 High Mountain Vines Cabernet displays glorious aromas of black currant, anise, mocha, exotic spice, and cedar. Medium weight, elevation has endowed this Argentine Cab with elegance and silkiness stitched against a backdrop of fine tannins and high acidity. It’s fresh and intense with a finish that flirts with saline-tipped minerality. — 9 years ago

Single vineyard, high elevation mountain fruit grown on volcanic soil. So much character for under $25... — 9 years ago
Highest elevation and therefore acidity. Lovely dusty edged focused bright red fruit with a touch of pepper. — 9 years ago
Just baked blueberry muffin with cinnamon on the nose. Beautiful flavors of tea leaf, blueberry, baking spice and a little mocha on the palate. An extremely complex wine from Pritchard Hill. The tannins are ultra-sleek with a fantastic finish. We get some earthiness throughout the entire tasting process which adds to its complexity. Would love to put a case of this back for a decade to see how it matures. Love it!
