Valdivieso Chardonnay Barrel Selection Reserve 2000

Region del Valle Central, ChileLight candied apple and peach aromas mixed with light butter and floral notes. Quite light in the mouth with lees, mineral and dry citrus flavours. Surprisingly light and restrained for Valdivieso and frankly disappointing for a 17 reserve wine. The broad appellation is a mystery too.Tasted: 01 September 2001Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
