Errázuriz Chardonnay Aconcagua Costa 2017 (93 JS)
“White stones, loquat, spices and some chamomile and apple-pie undertones. Fine and reserved on the palate with focused acidity, apple rind and citrus flavors and a taut finish yet one with depth.”

Aconcagua Costa
Errazuriz' Chardonnay Aconcagua Costa (formerly referred to as the Wild Ferment Chardonnay) is recognized as perhaps the top Chardonnay from South America. Errazuriz ferments its best lots of Chardonnay using natural yeast. Natural fermentation starts slower than inoculated fermentation because the yeasts must grow to sufficient numbers to transform sugars into alcohol. During this period the yeasts produce by-products which add distinctive flavors and complexity to the wine.
