Corralillo Chardonnay
Made with Organic Grapes
Tasting Notes
Pale yellow in color, this Chardonnay offers fresh citrus and tropical fruit aromas, with white flowers and mineral hints. The texture is soft & balanced, with precise acidity, while also exhibiting a persistent, complex and fresh finish. It is a classic Chardonnay that expresses its origin in a coastal climate.
Vineyards
The grapes for Corralillo Chardonnay are sourced from El Rosaria Valley, which is characterized by having a coastal Pacific climate ideal for this variety, insuring a slow ripening of the grapes, a fresh acidity and a very good concentration of aromas and tastes. The granite soils, with different compositions and topographies, favor the optimal development of the vines, providing unique, “high quality” fruit.
Winemaking
Made with Organic Grapes. The must was obtained through traditional and gentle pressing, without rotation. Thirty percent of the juice was fermented in stainless steel tanks of different sizes, forming the fresh, mineral component, while the rest was fermented in French oak barrels of different volumes, where the wine’s complexity and depth are achieved. During its ten months in barrels, periodic bâtonnage took place. A soft malolactic touch (10%) added just enough creamy texture, balance and rich mouthfeel.
