Carmen Chardonnay 1999
Region del Valle Central, ChileOnly 30 percent of the wine sees any wood and that's in barrels that are three, four and five years old. The crop was reduced by 30 percent in 1999 and you can taste the concentration. Open, ripe peach, melon, mineral aromas with a touch of lees. The wine is dry and not as lean 98 but well structured with ripe apple and peach/pear flavours. Lovely finish.Tasted: 01 September 2000Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:| BC | $12.95 | 750ml |
