A very textured chardonnay here with a subtle creamy layer to the lemon zest and minerals, with just a hint of herbs. Chalky and fresh on the palate with really attractive green fruit. Drink or hold.

The 2022 Chardonnay G-Lot originates from Gualtallary in the Uco Valley. It was aged in 80% French oak barrels, a quarter of them new. Yellow with a golden sheen. The nose presents basil and green apple aromas, complemented by hints of creamed corn and oak. The palate delivers a plush, indulgent experience, with a fresh, somewhat aqueous texture contributing to the elegant, easy-going mouthfeel.

This well-structured Chardonnay has a balanced mix of fruit and baking spices that make it enjoyable from start to finish. The nose displays aromas of lime and honey. It has energy on the creamy palate, backing flavors of apricot and lemons along with vanilla and honey.
