El Enemigo Chardonnay 2020

Product description
El Enemigo translates as the enemy. Nodding to the fact that at the end of any journey, most remember only one battle, the one fought within, the original enemy. This is the battle that defines us. The wines of El Enemigo are a tribute to those internal battles that make us who we are, brought to fruition by a winemaker, Alejandro Vigil, and a historian, Adrianna Catena, who share a love of wine and reach back in time to capture the era when European immigrants first settled in Argentina. These settlers sought to make wines as fine, and finer, than those of their old homeland. 

Alejandro Vigil is a master of Chardonnay and a man who likes to push boundaries, which is why this impressive white was made with a bit of flor, just like a Fino Sherry. 

96 Points - James Suckling

This has aromas of ripe apricots, buttercream, baked apples and pastries. Medium-to full-bodied with a creamy, round and almost oily texture. Lovely balance of ripe fruit and toasted-pastry notes with bright acidity. Delicious finish. Fantastic value, as always.

92 Points - Wine Spectator

Shows Viognier-like florals of gardenia and honeysuckle, with an elegant yet rich body of peach and pineapple. Reveals hints of thyme and mineral on the lengthy finish.
