Information

Chardonnay is a white wine from Chile, particularly from the Limarí Valley region. It has a pale golden color and a rich, complex taste. This wine features aromas of apple, pear, and a hint of butter and vanilla from oak aging. On the palate, it is medium-bodied with flavors of ripe fruit, toasted nuts, and a smooth, creamy finish. Chardonnay pairs perfectly with poultry, creamy pasta dishes, and seafood. Its versatile nature makes it a great choice for both casual and elegant dining experiences.

Fun facts

The Limarí Valley is particularly renowned for its mineral-driven Chardonnays, shaped by the region’s limestone-rich soils. These wines are often compared to those from Burgundy for their elegance and complexity.
