Errazuriz Chardonnay Wild Ferment 2015

Aconcagua Costa, Valle de Aconcagua, Region de Aconcagua, ChileErrazuriz continues to lead the way in sustainable, progressive Chilean winemaking. This fresh, saline-laced chardonnay is the perfect example. With vineyards 20 miles from the Pacific ocean at La Escultura Estate, this Casablanca Valley wine embraces the cool stream of air from the chilly Humboldt Currant that cycles off-shore. The whole-cluster fruit was fermented in stainless before partial MLF prior to ten months aging in French oak (17 percent new). White peach leads the tropical fruit on the medium+, creamy palate, finely spiced on the finish. A lovely, serious, fresh, approachable new world chardy at an incredible price.Tasted: 17 October 2017Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:
