Malbec Mon Amour - French Edition

Alejandro Vigil is the most prestigious winemaker in Argentina. A graduate in agricultural engineering with a master's degrees in both winemaking and irrigation management, he began his career in Catena Zapata in 2002. In 2007 he was appointed Winemaking Director. Under Alejandro's direction, the winery was named New World Winery of the Year in 2010 by Wine Enthusiast and Winery of the Year in 2012 by Wine and Spirits Magazine. A naturally restless person, Alejandro strives to channel his creative energy into pushing the limits of conventional viticultural and winemaking wisdom. Dr. Laura Catena, a Harvard and Stanford trained biologist and physician, was born into one of the world's great wine families. After publishing "Vino Argentino" (Chronicle Books, 2010), Laura began to put together the materials for a book that would highlight the historical circumstances and relevant vineyard details that are at the core of the world's most iconic wines. "Gold in the Vineyards" received the 2019 award for "Best in Wine History" from Gourmand Cookbook Awards. Dr. Laura Catena has been named one of the top 25 wine innovators by Grape Collective.
