Description

Wow this is gorgeous, seriously outrageously good Chardonnay. Bags of peaches and melon, toast, butter, cream and coconut caramel. 3 months in oak really binds this white together and a finish that just goes on and on… and on…. and on.

Patria Nueva, meaning New Country, is dedicated to the horses – not the horseman! – who launched Chile’s independence movement from Spain in 1817. If that sounds tenuous, take it up with the winery! Made by the Sur Valles group, the wines are excellent and very popular, particularly in Asia.
