The wine
La Posta’s most delicate and elegant expression. A high-altitude Pinot Noir that forms part of the project created by Laura Catena to honour Mendoza’s small, family-run winegrowers and the vineyards that best express the diversity of the Argentine Andes.
La Posta Glorieta is dedicated to Isaías Prieto, a winegrower from Tupungato and custodian of a vineyard planted in 1993 at more than 1,150 metres above sea level. His estate takes its name from a flower-covered gazebo that has become a special place for his family and the symbol of this wine. The result is a Pinot Noir that reflects both the vineyard’s personality and the passion of those who tend it every day.

Winemaking
Made from 100% Pinot Noir. Ageing combines different vessels to preserve the purity of the fruit and add complexity: 50% of the wine spends eight months in second-use barrels, 30% in stainless-steel tanks and 20% in concrete eggs.
