Tasting Note

It's a fresh, nervous, mineral wine. The mouth is tense and well-structured. The chalkiness and salinity of the soil come through in the palate. The nose reveals fruit, such as sweet cucumbers and apricots, as well as floral notes. As you sip the wine, it evolves in the glass. This is not a classic style of Chardonnay and we attribute this to its very particular and unique terroir. The Pacific Ocean has a major influence on the vineyard, producing morning fog, known locally as the “Camanchaca”, and strong winds, which cool the vines, making this a desert with cool climate conditions. The area is very arid and the soils are chalky and saline.

Product Notes

Ventisquero Tara White Wine 1 - Chardonnay is a premium Chilean white wine with a rich and complex flavor profile. This Chardonnay offers the classic tropical fruit notes, such as pineapple and papaya, along with subtle hints of vanilla and oak. Its texture is creamy and smooth, making it perfect to enjoy on a cozy evening or pair with seafood dishes. The grapes for this wine are carefully selected from the vineyards of the Limari Valley in Chile, where the cool climate and mineral-rich soil impart a unique character to the wine. Overall, Ventisquero Tara White Wine 1 - Chardonnay is an excellent example of Chilean wine-making at its best.
