    From vineyard to bottle

    The origin, grapes and craftsmanship behind this wine.

    The Salentein Barrel Selection Chardonnay is a rich and creamy white wine from the Uco Valley in Mendoza, Argentina. Produced by the renowned Bodegas Salentein, this wine combines tradition with innovation and allows the unique terroir of this region to shine.

    The Chardonnay grapes are grown in the high-altitude vineyards of the La Pampa vineyard, located at 1,250 meters above sea level. Here, warm days and cool nights ensure optimal ripening of the grapes, resulting in a beautiful balance between freshness and ripeness. After being harvested by hand, the wine undergoes fermentation and aging in French oak barrels. This process gives the wine its characteristic full body and subtle oak notes.

    We explained why you should use French oak barrels in this blog article .

    With the Salentein Barrel Selection Chardonnay, you're choosing a wine that perfectly reflects the unique characteristics of the Uco Valley. The combination of carefully selected grapes, oak aging, and the expertise of Bodegas Salentein results in a wine that is both elegant and full-bodied. Order today and discover why this Chardonnay is so beloved by wine lovers worldwide.
