Catena Chardonnay Agrelo Vineyards 2001

Mendoza, ArgentinaThis is a delicious chardonnay that is 100 per cent barrel fermented with wild yeast. The long 50 day fermentation and sur lie ageing and stirring gives it a wonderful creamy mouthfeel. Pear and toasted oak dominate the flavours but it's all in balance. Sonoma-like chardonnay from Mendoza at a very affordable price.Tasted: 20 May 2003Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
