The Andeluna 1300 Chardonnay from Argentina is a true gem. Its name, 1300, is a nod to the vineyard's altitude, which is essential for producing superior Chardonnay grapes. Thanks to the combination of warm days and cool nights, the grapes develop into deep, powerful specimens.
Andeluna's exquisite wine range
In 2003, Argentine business magnate H. Ward Lay laid the foundation for Andeluna. With his father as the founder and CEO of Pesico, he was no stranger to the Argentine beverage industry. His ambition was to take Andeluna to the top of Argentine wine production. Located at an altitude of 1,300 meters in Mendoza, at the foot of the Andes, Andeluna Cellars is surrounded by 70 hectares of its own vineyards. With the expertise of "Flying Winemaker" Michel Rolland as a consultant, Andeluna has built a reputation for producing outstanding wines.
Each Andeluna wine has a unique and distinctive character, yet they all share impressive quality and flavor. Thanks in part to their dedication and selective approach, their Reserve and Grand Reserve wines enjoy worldwide recognition.
Hand-picked Chardonnay grapes
The grapes for this wine come from the Uco Valley in Mendoza, at an altitude of 1,300 meters. This unique terroir produces grapes with a striking natural acidity. The Chardonnay grapes are hand-harvested here and then fermented at controlled temperatures in stainless steel vats. The result is a fresh, flavorful, and authentic Argentinian Chardonnay.
The Andeluna 1300 Chardonnay offers aromas of lime, peach, white flowers, and green apple. Its palate is subtly dry, with signature Chardonnay notes of tropical fruit, apricot, and passion fruit.
