100% Chardonnay wine from the Central Valley in Chile

SKU: 10256060181

Elaboration

100% Chardonnay wine from the Central Valley of Chile. At the foot of the Andes Mountains, the clayey and well-drained soil meets the soils located in the area near the Coastal Mountains, which are heavier and have a combination of mud and clay. The vineyards of these soils are special and the grapes unique. They are harvested by hand, the must is cold soaked in yeast for 3 days at 3-4 ° C. The juice fermented in stainless steel vats at 14 ° C, with a controlled fermentation. After fermentation, the wine remained in contact with the yeast for a month to obtain more volume and character. Finally, the wine was mixed and lightly filtered before bottling.

Taster´s notes

This wine has a bright golden color, fruity aromas of peach and melon. The palate has a good volume and a balanced acidity. Its medium-high persistence and fruitfulness make this wine pleasant and easy to drink. We recommend pairing it with salads, shellfish, fish, cheese and white meat. We suggest a serving temperature of 11ºC

The Winery

Viña Santa Rita was founded in 1880 by Don Domingo Fernández Concha, a leading businessman and public figure of the time. Don Domingo brought the finest French grape varieties to the rich soils of the Maipo Valley, together with specialized equipment and a team of top winemakers from France. This brought techniques that were hitherto unknown in Chile, changing the way in which wines were made in the country and bringing spectacular results. In 1980 the company became part of the Claro Group, and the new ownership brought a major leap forward in quality and business acumen. Since then, Viña Santa Rita has continued to work with the latest and most advanced technology to create exquisite wines for each of its product lines, bringing forth the many prizes and awards that it has earned over the years.
