Tilia Mendoza Chardonnay 2018 (Argentina)
- French & American oak
- Ripe citrus
- Subtle vanilla
- Clean, bright finish
"Elegant and restrained, the bouquet shows grapefruit, apple, lemon peel and oatmeal characters with a hint of flint. It is bright and focused on the palate with fine texture and crisp acidity, finishing persistent and linear" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Oct 2019
Golden yellow in color, the Tilia Chardonnay has aromas of ripe citrus fruits with subtle floral notes and a touch of vanilla, a contribution made by the oak barrels (French & American) in which this wine is briefly aged. On the palate, the wine has flavors of pear and tropical fruits with hints of vanilla and spice on the finish. The finish is clean and bright.
The Tilia wines are made at Bodegas Esmeralda in the Eastern region of Mendoza. They are made by Leopoldo Kuschnaroff, a winemaker and viticulturist in charge of all Catena family vineyards in Eastern Mendoza. The grapes for this Chardonnay were sourced from vineyards sites in both the Eastern and Southern regions with elevations ranging from 1,500 to 3,000 feet above sea level.
Food Pairing: This Chardonnay would pair well with most chicken dishes, pasta dishes with cream sauces, and many seafood recipes like Grilled Salmon with Mango Salsa.
