Beautiful lemon yellow color with fresh citrus aromas. Flavours of citrus fruits and sweet melon flavors mingle withe the classic characters of this grape variety.

Pairing

The perfect accompaniment to pasta dishes, seafood and soft cheeses.

Region

The grapes come from the Casablanca Valley. Located only 30 km from the Pacific Ocean, the valley benefits from the ocean's influence, which regulates daily and night-time temperatures. This slow ripening process gives the wines a concentrated and naturally fresh flavour.

Technical information

Grapes are harvested when they are at just the right point of maturity to express the full potential of the famous Chardonnay grapes of the Aconcagua Valley. After destemming, grapes are cooled down (below 13º for more than 20 days) to prevent fermentation from starting too soon and enhance fruit concentration.The wine remains in contact with fine lees for 60 days to enhance its body and flavour.
