From vineyard to bottle

The origin, grapes and craftsmanship behind this wine.

Looking for a full-bodied Chardonnay? Look no further; this delicious oak-aged Chardonnay from Argentina is a gem! The vineyards for this Argentinian white wine are located at an altitude of 1200 meters in the Tupungato wine district. Nestled among the foothills of the Andes Mountains, the Chardonnay grapes grow in complete tranquility. At this altitude, the grapes receive ample warmth from the sun, but also a pleasant freshness that prevents them from ripening too quickly. Meltwater from the snow-capped peaks provides natural and clean irrigation for the vines. The harvest for this Chardonnay grape is carried out entirely by hand during the first week of March. This manual harvest ensures strict selection, ensuring only the finest fruit makes it into the wine. Before aging, this delicious Chardonnay is aged in French oak barrels for eight months. This aging process creates its full, beautifully creamy character.

The enormous popularity of Terrazas wines is no surprise. The driving force behind this beautiful winery is the world-renowned Champagne house Moët & Chandon. In 1959, they purchased several hectares of land to establish an Argentinian winery. Thanks to the expertise gained from France and the potential Argentina held for the wine industry, this proved to be a golden opportunity. More than 50 years later, Terrazas wines are known and loved worldwide. Moreover, these beautiful wines, including the Terrazas de Los Andes Chardonnay, have already received prestigious awards from renowned wine critics. Terrazas wines are also regularly featured in top restaurants, which is no surprise.

Pouring this oak-aged Chardonnay immediately reveals its beautiful straw-yellow color with a lovely golden sheen. The aroma reveals silky aromas of peach, pineapple, orange blossom, and a hint of vanilla. The mouthfeel is delightful. The mild, oily finish creates a pleasant and full-bodied experience. The rich flavor nuances of tropical fruit, dominated by peach and passion fruit, are pleasantly balanced by a light hint of citrus and vanilla. The long, intense finish completes this Argentinian gem. Looking to pair this wine with a delicious dish? Consider dishes with salmon or pan-fried whitefish.
