The Aluvia Chardonnay 2021 is a high-altitude expression of Chardonnay from the Gualtallary district in the Uco Valley, Mendoza, Argentina. The vineyard is situated at 1,350 metres on alluvial soils rich in limestone and stones. This wine is partly barrel-fermented in second-use French oak and partly matured in concrete eggs to enhance texture and minerality. It displays a restrained, elegant profile of citrus, white peach and beeswax, underpinned by a precise, mineral tension and a refreshing acidity that reflects the cool, high-elevation terroir.
Vinous
The 2021 Chardonnay Altaluvia hails from the Alluvia Vineyard in Gualtallary, Uco Valley. It was aged in second-use French barrels. Green in the glass with a yellowish sheen. The expressive nose presents pineapple, herbs, quince, and linden blossom notes. The palate is indulgent and broad, with tart acidity and a subtle chalky texture contrasting with the warm, creamy character. A fruity, prolix Chardonnay.Joaquin Hidalgo1st July 2023
