Cheap? No. Brilliant? Yes. From the beautiful land of Patagonia, and crafted by the legendary hands of Jean-Marc Roulot and Piero Incisa della Rocchettta, this focused, chiseled, aromatic and mineral-driven Chacra Chardonnay will stand toe-to-toe with just about anything from Burgundy or America. Absolutely lovely. Vintage: 2022 Country: Argentina Region: Patagonia Appellation: Patagonia Grape: Chardonnay Farming: Organic Drink: Now-2028

Stone fruit, citrus and minerality. Not sure if this has any used oak, certainly no new oak. Must have spent some time on the lees and at least partial malolactic fermentation.

Linear, precise but with some weight. Perfect pairing wine. Lemon and citrus (mandarin orange juiciness) forward with creaminess and weight on the back. Mersault like but has a distinct pithy, citrus peel and umami character on the mid palate.

Subdued aromas, ripe lemons, lime peel, citrusy yet warm. A bit of exotic notes. Beautiful mouthfeel! Fresh, juicy yet with a creamy note. Amazing depth & purity. Great precision, too! Very Burgundian and yet not really, as the taste profile is slightly different. Not Oregonian not Kiwi either. Delicious stuff nonetheless!!
