2012--this wine always amazes me. Hints at premier Cru Chablis but has its own signature. Gotta be one of the great Chardonnay values in the world.

Hands down the most balanced, pure, and terroir-transparent white I have ever tasted from Chile. Citrusy and flinty with hints of key lime sorbet and crushed mint.

Pretty awesome. One of the best Chilean whites I've had. Tons of noble reduction, as well as a fair amount of acid, but a little chubby around the edges.

Stoney, delicate candied lemon nose. Back of the mouth lemon rinds, pebble/stone minerals and a hint of leaf before the finish. Nerve and poise but with a rounded resolution.
