Aromas of honeysuckle, limes, green apples and a hint of cedar. It’s medium-bodied yet very dense and compact on the palate. It’s like a tight fist with the fruit and fine phenolics. Long finish. A structured and impressive young wine.

#2: It’s no mean feat to achieve this level of concentration and complexity in a Chardonnay with just 12% alcohol. Made with grapes from a 1950s vineyard that was grafted over from Merlot in 2015, it’s one of the finest Chardonnays in South America, with just 5% new wood, an important amphora component, top notes of fennel and jasmine, steely acidity, a touch of petrichor and a persistent lemon juice palate.

Sourced from silt-dominated soils, the 2024 Chacra Chardonnay opens with an immediately inviting and complex bouquet melding marshmallow, saline and citrus notes with ever-increasing definition and harmony. The palate echoes with a deep, velvety, effortless richness perfectly counterbalanced by a chalky, lifted, tangy energy. It concludes with a multidimensional, bright, mineral-drenched finish further elongated by additional rounds of stony intensity without ever veering into sharp or angular territory. It's an impressive, crystalline and simply delicious expression of Patagonia.
