Laura Catena works on two continents—as physician and winemaker:
winery in Mendoza, Argentina, as well as a physician in San Francisco; she is a graduate of Harvard and Stanford, as well as an author and mother of three.
“There are all these vineyard viruses, and microbes in soils we’re studying that are essential for plant health. I understand how viruses work, how bacteria work. I think there’s a lot of crossover in my skill set. Also, you’re always in a team as a doctor. That helped me bring a teamwork culture to Argentina, where, when I started, it was all top down. The owner of a winery only talked to three head people. They said hello to other people, but they had no idea what anybody else was doing.
Catena has assiduously researched ancient French texts to learn more about the history of Malbec in Bordeaux.“We have this incredible variety, the survivor of 2,000 years that can make these beautiful, aromatic, concentrated, smooth wines. And I think the world has not yet seen the highest level that Malbec can reach. There’s also the Malbec Cabernet blend that has been lost in Bordeaux but now exists in Argentina.
“Now that I’ve run a family winery for all these years, I look at the impact we’re going to have on the people in the vineyards, the impact we—Catena—have on the rest of Argentine wine. My father was the pioneer in making high quality Argentine wine. So, to me, the impact of a responsible business—we’ve done a lot of work on sustainability in terms of not using pesticides, preserving traditions in the countryside.
