"When I was going to school, I didn’t think that people making wine were making a big difference in the world because, to me, those jobs were as a teacher, as a doctor – you had to be in service." "But today I manage our winery which provides jobs that elevate Argentine wines, and we are helping our whole region with all the research that we do and share. Then there’s the joy that wine brings to people. I honestly think that I’m making a greater impact as a winemaker than as a doctor." For our next instalment in our 'A Path to Wine' series we interview Laura Catena of Bodega Catena Zapata in Argentina and the Catena Institute of Wine. A series in partnership with JancisRobinson.com we interview some of the best-known women in wine.
