Luca Chardonnay Altos De Mendoza G Lot 2020

Product description

Beautiful pale gold color with enticing aromas of lemon crème, baking spices and a minerality in its long finish. The aromas carry through to the palate, and are joined by hints of white peach flavors, spiced baked pear, and a stony/mineral flavor that creates a stylish wine that appears part New and part Old World. This wine will age well for years in a cellar.

Pairs well with most fish, crab, chicken and even pork.

93 Points - James Suckling

Attractive aromas of white peach, dried mango, cream, smoked almond and flint. It’s medium-to full-bodied with crisp acidity. Deliciously ripe and creamy with vanilla and custard notes on the finish. Tangy at the end.

The 2020 G Lot Chardonnay comes from a warmer year when they picked 20 days earlier than usual. It fermented in French barrels where it matured for eight months. It has a very balsamic profile, it’s still very young and the ripeness is contained, similar to the 2019 I tasted next to it. It’s creamy and floral, with good freshness and a compact mouthfeel.
