Amelia, Chardonnay 2021

"The 2021 Chardonnay Amelia hails from the Quebrada Seca Vineyard in the Limarí Valley and was fermented in Burgundy barrels, 10% new. Green with yellowish sheen. The nose features green apple and pear notes along with ginger snap and herbs over a faint layer of cedar. Lean and fairly creamy in the mouth, the taut, refreshing acidity and pinch of salt make for an alluring flow. An intricately assembled white from Limarí in which the subtlety has been enhanced by the work with the lees and the wood." - Vinous

"Pure and incisively mineral with oyster shell and chalk on the nose with some green pineapples, lemon and a twist of sour cream. Tense but creamy on the palate with a supple mouthfeel that rounds off the refreshingly high acidity. Saline, delicious finish." -James Suckling
