Errazuriz Las Pizarras Chardonnay 2020 is a medium-bodied white wine from the Aconcagua region of Chile. The nose presents aromas of citrus fruits and subtle floral hints, with traces of marzipan and nutty undertones. On the palate, it offers a balanced freshness, alongside a layered complexity. The flavour profile is primarily citrus-forward, complemented by nuanced hints of tropical fruits and a touch of toasted bread. A notable mineral character is evident, lending persistence to the finish. Errazuriz, founded in 1870, is renowned for its commitment to sustainable practices and terroir expression in the Aconcagua region.

The 2020 Las Pizarras Chardonnay comes from a challenging warm and dry year, and they sorted and selected the grapes looking for as much freshness as possible, they started harvesting early and kept the alcohol to 12.5%, but it has a slightly higher pH at 3.22. 2019 was nearly as warm as 2017 and the driest in the last 50 years, but they had a little higher yields and the wine was not as concentrated. The brutal selection (they only produced 4,900 bottles, whereas there were 8,900 from 2021...) paid off, paired with the more careful management of the irrigation to make the vines suffer less, so the wine comes through as harmonious and fresh; it`s only in the comparison with a cooler year when it suffers. It`s tasty and spicy, elegant and balanced, with purity and the minerality that is the flagship from this wine. It was bottled in April 2021. - Luis Gutiérrez

The 2020 Chardonnay Las Pizarras from Aconcagua Costa, was fermented and aged for 13 months in 400-liter French barrels, 30% of them new. Yellow in color, with a delicate nose of mild hazelnut, apple, linden blossom, honey, acacia, hints of herbs and a whiff of mint. In the mouth, the vibrant acidity sets the tone, accompanied by a chalky, saline feel that injects energy and tension before the long, bold finish.
