"D.V. Catena Chardonnay - Chardonnay reflects the characteristics of its regions of origin. With warm, sunny days and cool nights, the Chardonnay grapes reach full and well-balanced ripeness. Its color is golden yellow with light greenish hues. Highly complex and elegant, it is concentrated and intense on the nose: the La Pirámide vineyard provides aromas of ripe tropical fruits, pineapple, and white peach. The Domingo vineyard imparts citrus and mineral aromas. On the palate, with a sweet and unctuous impact, ripe fruit flavors and lively acidity are perceived, giving it a fresh and long finish."
