Note di degustazione
The 2022 Las Pizarras Chardonnay is enticingly pure and vibrant on the nose, exuding a pleasing combination of bright, floral and crushed stone aromas with incredible clarity. The palate is a livewire of energy, with a radiant, beaming presence and outstanding, chiseled precision. It concludes on a long, layered and stoney finish accented with bright citrus notes and impressive length. This grew ever more nuanced and multidimensional in the glass, gaining substantial textural breadth but never losing sight of its crystalline purity and focused core. This was 100% barrel fermented, underwent partial malolactic fermentation and aged 12 months in 20% new French barrique.

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.
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.
