2023 Bouza Chardonnay, Bouza Bodega Boutique, Montevideo
Pale yellow colour with silver highlights. Hints of minerals on the nose, with marked tropical fruit aromas, pineapple and pear, wrapped in pink grapefruit and lime notes. Sweet fruits and piercing acidity on the attack with buttery brioche to finish.
16.5 points, JancisRobinson.com
Bright and juicy Chardonnay. This warmer vintage shows tropical and citrus notes, with heady aromas of pineapple, key lime pie and pink grapefruit. There’s a youthful richness on the palate, but juicy acidity keeps it crisp and fermentation in French oak gives it a toasty complexity. (AB)
