Description
This Chardonnay is sourced from vineyards planted in 1998. The vines enjoy a strong maritime influence that moderates the region's high daytime temperatures. The ocean-born cool breezes and morning fogs help preserve the acidity and freshness of the fruit, which translates into crisp and fruity wines with great balance and minerality. Enjoy with roast chicken or shellfish stew.

Tasting Notes
A classic example of chardonnay from the alluvial and calcareous soils of the terraces of the Limar� River, about 30 kilometers from the Pacific in northern Chile. Very lush with lots of tropical fruit flavors along with those saline notes that are typical of the place. Nine months in barrels have given it a focus on that creamy sensation. Score - 91.
