2021 Las Pizarras Chardonnay

The 2021 Chardonnay Las Pizarras hails from Aconcagua Costa, specifically a vineyard located 7 miles from the ocean planted in slate soils. It was aged for one year in 400-liter French oak barrels, 1/3 of them new. The nuanced nose presents green apple and linden-blossom notes with hints of aniseed, mint and cedar over a bed of hazelnut. In the mouth, the vibrant acidity and faintly creamy feel set the tone accompanied by a chalky, saline texture adding energy and tension before the long, bold finish.

The 2021 Las Pizarras Chardonnay is stunning, with amazing parameters, 12.5% alcohol, a pH of 3.07 and 8.63 grams of acidity that gives it an austere profile, elegant, vibrant, mineral and pure, extremely clean, chiseled and symmetric, with an effervescent palate and the intensely mineral and salty character that defines the best vintage of this wine. The full clusters were pressed and the juice fermented with indigenous yeasts in French oak barrels, where it matured for 12 months. This is a wine with full development of aromas and flavors, subtly nuanced (marzipan, pear, white flowers) with very integrated oak and stunning precision, finishing very dry. Delicate and elegant. It's among the finest vintages, with less power than 2015, vertical and with good structure, more Chablis than Meursault. Superb! 8,900 bottles were filled in June 2022.
