What sets Casa Silva apart is their ability to combine traditional Old World winemaking techniques with New World innovations. Over the years, Casa Silva has expanded its vineyards, with a specific focus on selecting the best sites for each grape variety. The proximity to the Pacific Ocean and the remarkable daily temperature variations produce aromatic wines with vibrant acidity. The Casa Silva Chardonnay grapes, sourced from vines planted some 35 years ago at the foot of the Andes Mountains, benefit from this unique climate, resulting in a wine of intensity and power.
The location near the Andes is crucial for the Casa Silva Chardonnay. Although the days can be warm, the cool mountain breeze provides welcome relief. These temperature fluctuations contribute to the development of a Chardonnay with a rich yet refreshing flavor.
After careful pressing, the golden juice of the Chardonnay is fermented and bottled within a few weeks. The aroma is an invitation in itself, with notes of exotic fruit, red apple, lime zest, and apricot. The taste is a harmonious blend of buttery richness and freshness, complemented by hints of apricot and honey. The finish is refreshing, with clean notes of yellow fruit and a hint of grapefruit.
