Description

Catena Chardonnay shows ripe tropical fruit, citrus, white stone fruit, floral notes, fresh acidity, and subtle oak‑derived vanilla and spice, finishing clean and mineral.

Aromas (Nose)

  • Honey and tropical fruit such as pineapple and banana appear prominently

  • Citrus, pears, peaches, and white flowers add freshness and lift

  • A strong mineral character reflects the high‑altitude vineyard blend

  • Vanilla and sweet spice hints come from French oak aging

Palate

  • The wine is full yet clean, with a fresh, crisp acidity that balances the ripe fruit

  • Flavors echo the nose: ripe pineapple, banana, and white stone fruits, supported by subtle spice tones

  • The mouthfeel is smooth and well‑structured, shaped by battonage and 10–12 months in French oak barrels

Style & Structure

  • Color: Intense greenish‑yellow

  • Body: Medium‑plus, with a rounded texture from lees contact.
  • Acidity: Bright, typical of high‑altitude Mendoza vineyards

  • Oak: Present but delicate, contributing vanilla and gentle spice rather than heaviness

  • Overall impression: A balanced, fruit‑forward yet mineral Chardonnay with freshness and subtle complexity.
