Chardonnay "Chacra" 2019 - Bodega Chacra Patagonia

Tasting notes

Chacra Chardonnay comes from 40 year old vines in mineral soils with alluvial stones covered in calcaire. It was fermented in barrel with 100% malolactic, spending eleven months in mostly second and third use French oak barrels. The wine is high pitched and livelier, like an upgraded version of their Mainqué Chardonnay, despite the fact that this top cuvée has gone through full malolactic. This is both rounder and more austere, if that makes sense, with only 12% alcohol, it has more intensity and more energy. A truly spectacular bottle that will reward the patient in spades.

INFORMATIONS ABOUT THE ESTATE

The finest Pinot Noir in South America comes from Río Negro’s most influential winery, Bodega Chacra. The Patagonian estate is devoted to producing three strands of Pinot Noir – Barda, Cincuenta y Cinco and Treinta y Tres - on their 24-hectare valley plot. Proprietor, Piero Incisa della Rocchetta, acquired this property in 2004, leaving his multigenerational Italian winemaking family for uncharted territory. With aims to create the world’s best Pinot Noir, Piero Incisa settled in the Río Negro Valley. Today, the estate instills biodynamic and organic farming practices across their sparse gravel and alluvial soils, resulting in intense fruit forward wines, which have become a signature in their Argentinian-styled Pinot Noirs.
