Fantastic #chilean #chardonnay
Nice tension, structure, and balance with some really pretty floral notes and ripe fruit. The concentration was nice but the intensity felt like it was high but hidden.
#demartino #chile I will be interested to see where this will be in a couple years.

A truly fantastic expression of #chardonnay coming out of #chileanwine this reminds us that the lines between old world and new world are ever closing.

Sadly this is the last vintage of Quebrada Seca for De Martino as the vineyard will be rented to someone else. Again, this wine over-deliveries. A beauty showing enormous complexity: ripe melons, sea spray, chalk, wood (not oak), lees. Creaminess balanced by a lingering finish led by acid and saltness.
