Product Notes

Salentein Barrel Selection Chardonnay, a distinguished offering from Argentina's Uco Valley, is unquestionably sublime. It presents a tasteful melange of notes - juicy pear, ripe pineapple, and toasted almond, underlined with discreet touches of vanilla from meticulous oak-aging. Distinctive minerality lends balance, while the palate offers a refreshing acidity and a long, elegant finish. This Chardonnay maintains a delightful complexity, giving a deft blend of luscious fruit and understated oak. Not merely an accompaniment - it's a central highlight of any dining experience. An exceptional choice for indulgent seafood dishes or creamy cheeses.

Tasting Notes

Bright, light yellow colour with greenish sparks. On the nose it brings citrus notes mingled with flowers and minerals. It is soft, wide and fresh in the mouth with floral notes
