| Description: | 98 JS / 97 Vm / 96 JA. Astonishing purity and youthful freshness, the white-peach, Asian-pear and candied Amalfi-lemon aromas incredibly vivid. Super-focused, medium-bodied palate with staggering vitality and energy. This is very concentrated, but the refreshing acidity makes it feel so light on its feet. Then comes the diamond-bright minerality at the finish. Surely the best white wine from this producer to date! Made from vines planted in 2005. Drink or hold. 20th Anniversary Berlin Tasting Event, February 2024.=James Suckling. The 2022 Chardonnay Las Pizarra was cultivated on slate soils overlooking the Pacific Ocean. Aged for 12 months in French oak barrels, 20% new, this yellow-green wine delivers enticing aromas of green apple, ginger and cedar, complemented by acacia, nard and lime notes. Lean, refreshing and taut, its elevated acidity and vibrant mouthfeel create a uniquely nervy yet creamy texture. This is a stunning coastal Chardonnay with a nod to Burgundy. Coastal terroirs, when planted with high-quality grape material, offer a renewed expression of Chile's potential for high-end whites-this wine is a remarkable example.-Joaquin Hidalgo, Vinous Media. A superb Chardonay from Chile, combines a rich texture with a tight stone fruit core, juicy white peach and pear set against sage spice, gunsmoke and white flower aromatics, love it. Natural yeast fermentation, aged in French oak barrels. Brilliant stuff from owner Eduardo Chadwick and winemaker Tomas Munoz.-Jane Anson, Inside Bordeaux. |
