Tiberius Chardonnay 2005

This is an excellent example of the Mendoza chardonnay. Fermentation was performed under controlled temperatures to maintain its natural colour and flavour. At the same time, specific care was taken to both keep the primary aromas of the fruits, and the secondary aromas after fermentation. This wine's elaboration in contact with French and American oaks results in complex aromas. It has a greenish colour with gold reflections. The wine smells of tropical fruits, with a touch of vanilla and toast, furnished by the breeding in contact with French and American oak. On the palate, it is harmonious, well-rounded, with plenty of body and equilibrium, with a delicate acidity that gives the wine its vivid flavours. It is a very pleasant wine.
