A very full wine, with a remarkable mineral profile and the acidity is accompanied by sufficient richness. Very deep in flavour on the back palate. Tasty and smooth. I love the fruit load of this Chardonnay. (FC)

2017 was not an easy act to follow, but the 2018 Aconcagua Costa "Las Pizarras" Chardonnay managed nicely. From a cool year, it has notes of white flowers and nuts and is a little lighter than the 2017, which was more structured. It doesnt have the depth and sharpness of the 2017, but it has very good freshness. Its vertical and mineral and has nice tension, following the path of the 2015 and 2017. This is now matured mostly in 300- and 400-liter oak barrels, and the oak is nicely integrated. Only 50% of the wine went through malolactic. 6,557 bottles and 60 magnums were filled in February 2019.
