Tasting profile
Structure: full-bodied, low tannin, medium acidity, dry
Chardonnay from San Rafael, the southern Mendoza department that sits lower and cooler than the Uco Valley and has a long history of its own. A Reserva bottling means barrel ageing, and it shows: ripe peach and melon with citrus underneath, vanilla and toasted nuts from oak, and a creamy lees-worked texture. Full-bodied and generous rather than taut, in the richer register of Argentine Chardonnay. Best with food that can meet the weight.
