Cordillera Chardonnay 2019 - Miguel Torres Chile

The Cordillera Chardonnay by Miguel Torres from Chile shimmers this wine in a shiny straw yellow with fine golden highlights. The bouquet offers a wonderful variety of aromas. It presents fresh grapefruit along with white currants and juicy vineyard peaches - accompanied by fruit blossoms and an elegant, fine touch of roasted hazelnuts. On the palate, this Chilean white wine presents a juicy, full-bodied body with a melty-creamy texture. The aromas of the nose are also wonderfully present and balance perfectly with the lively acidity. The long finale is accompanied by fruity notes of stone fruit and citrus fruits. 

Vinification of the Torres Cordillera Chardonnay

The harvested material is immediately taken to the wine cellar and gently pressed there. The fermentation and ageing of this white wine takes place in both steel tanks and wooden barrels. 54% of this white wine comes in French oak barrels and 46% is fermented and aged in stainless steel tanks. The oak wood gives this wine its harmonious balance - the stainless steel tank the fresh grape fruit. Biological acid degradation is dispensed with in this wine - the wine matures on the fine yeast.
