A 100% estate-grown Chardonnay from the Uco Valley in Mendoza, Argentina, made by Bodega Catena Zapata. The grapes are whole-cluster pressed and fermented on the lees with wild yeasts in French oak barrels and stainless steel tanks. About 40% of the wine does not undergo malolactic fermentation, and the wine spends six to eight months in a mix of first, second and third-use French oak barrels.
The aroma brings white flowers, golden apple, hazelnut, pastry cream and a subtle herbal note, with pear, honeyed tropical fruit and gentle vanilla. The palate is lush and medium-bodied, with peach, lemon curd, baked apple, pronounced minerality and fresh acidity, plus green papaya and brioche. The finish is clean and long, with citrus peel, a faint mineral thread and crisp acidity.
Serve lightly chilled between 10 and 12 degrees Celsius.
