Terrazas Reserva Chardonnay
TERRAZAS Reserva Chardonnay is an Argentinian white wine from Mendoza, made by Terrazas de los Andes from high-altitude Chardonnay vineyards in the Uco Valley. It is positioned as a fresh, expressive and layered Reserva Chardonnay, combining bright fruit, mineral freshness and a fuller texture shaped by oak fermentation and lees ageing.
Terrazas de los Andes describes this Reserva Chardonnay as a blend of more than 10 vineyard parcels sourced from three high-altitude estate vineyards in the Uco Valley, at approximately 1,230 to 1,650 metres. The grapes are harvested early for freshness, fermentation is completed in oak barrels, malolactic fermentation is partial, and the wine spends eight months ageing on lees before bottling.
In the glass, this Chardonnay presents a pale straw-yellow white-wine appearance. The nose brings juicy yellow peach and pear, supported by grapefruit, candied citrus peel and a light touch of white honey. On the palate, bright pear fruit and balanced acidity give it a full-bodied, layered feel, before a long, unctuous finish with subtle brioche character.
Serve TERRAZAS Reserva Chardonnay chilled with meals where a fresh but full-bodied white wine is useful. The producer recommends it with grilled white fish, butter or cream-based pasta, Thai food, Camembert, Brie and citrus-led dishes, making it suitable for dinner, casual entertaining and white-wine gifting.
