The 2018 Chardonnay Apartado Gran is made from grapes from Gualtallary and El Cepillo in the Uco Valley and was aged for 12 months in 50% new oak. Golden yellow in the glass. The initially shy nose is dominated by the aging process, offering hazelnuts and yeast before opening up into fine layers of apple and ginger cookie over a bed of butter and oak. Broad and creamy on the palate with mild concentration; vibrant freshness provides a counterpoint. The oak returns during the persistent finish, accompanied by notes of vanilla and yeast.

On Nose its Blackberries, red fruits, leather, tobacco, oak, very aromatique
On the palate, Mouthful flavor, all rounded wine, long finish, fine tannin, very little spice typical malbec, medium intensity. This wine is delicious, can survive 5 more years of bottle aging. Decant time is 30 minutes, what a strong vintage from argentine. Enjoy it now! CHEERS — 10 months ago
