“The nose of candied lemon with a hint of vanilla oak is the hallmark of this concentrated and beautifully balanced Chardonnay. Lots of freshly cut pear and a long, elegant, mineral finish. Drink now or cellar.” (James Suckling)
Incredibly fresh without excessive oak, this Chardonnay, planted at an altitude of 1,300 meters, is a wine of great precision in a style that is more French than American and less oaky than what is often found in Argentine whites. A great Chardonnay!

About the wine:
The 2017 Catalpa Chardonnay is harmonious and well-balanced, quite fresh and fruity, with moderate alcohol and a medium body. It has a smooth and fresh mouthfeel. It is a very pleasant and easy-to-drink Chardonnay.
