2021 Las Pizarras Chardonnay, Errazuriz, Aconcagua Costa, Chile
The 2021 Chardonnay Las Pizarras hails from Aconcagua Costa, specifically a vineyard located 7 miles from the ocean planted in slate soils. It was aged for one year in 400-liter French oak barrels, 1/3 of them new. The nuanced nose presents green apple and linden-blossom notes with hints of aniseed, mint and cedar over a bed of hazelnut. In the mouth, the vibrant acidity and faintly creamy feel set the tone accompanied by a chalky, saline texture adding energy and tension before the long, bold finish.
