Toprated hvidvin, der fortjent kaldes en 'oversøisk Meursault'

Måske verdens bedste hvidvin til prisen! I hvert fald har denne Chardonnay opnået internationale topratings, som ingen anden hvidvin i samme prisklasse.

I glasset har El Enemigo Chardonnay en klar strågylden farve med lette grønne nuancer.

Bouqueten byder på aromaer af citrus, grønne æbler, melon og smør, suppleret af et diskret strejf af vanilje, ristet hasselnød og brioche fra lagringen.

Smagen er fyldig med en behagelig balance mellem frisk syre og cremet tekstur. Der er nuancer af moden frugt, citrus og et hint af mineralitet, som afrunder oplevelsen.

El Enemigo Chardonnay passer godt til grillet fisk, skaldyrsretter, kylling samt cremede pastaretter, hvor vinens friskhed og struktur kommer til sin ret.

  • Salty and spicy, with aromas of ginger, cardamom, lemons and sea salt. The palate is medium- to full-bodied, sharp and pungent, with a precise, saline character. Rich, focused and delicious. From grapes grown in Gualtallary. Fermented and aged in French oak, of which 35% was new. Drink or hold.

  • The 2023 Chardonnay El Enemigo comes from Gualtallary, Uco Valley. Aged in 500-liter French oak barrels, it opens with green apple, chamomile, white peach, herbs and a subtle vermouth note. Dry, compact and saline, the oak broadens the palate where richness is otherwise restrained. The 2023 is a modern, refined profile for Gualtallary Chardonnay in a warm vintage.

  • Alejandro Vigil allows a little flor to develop on the surface of his complex Gualtallary Chardonnay, giving it a salty undertone. Flavours of oatmeal, orange peel and waxed lemons are complemented by some oak spice and sweetness and a drizzle of dried honey.

  • The vines that produce the grapes for this intense and fruity chardonnay were planted at an altitude of 1,470 meters, in Gualtallary, at the northern end of the Uco Valley, on calcium-rich soils. And it behaves like what it is—a mountain white that smells of herbs and white fruits, but above all of herbs. The palate is marked by intense acidity, and the saline finish that is so common, in both red and white wines that come from those Uco soils. A textbook Andean chardonnay.

  • The 2023 Chardonnay has a compelling nose of steely green apple but is more defined by its grasp of flinty mineral and texture of wet stone. Quenching acidity underscores a liner, focused, and seamless expression of refined complexity and light-bodied grace.

  • The 2023 Chardonnay derives from Adrianna Vineyard, was vinified in 500-liter barrique and incorporates some biological aging and a small portion of a five-year-old solera. Leading with a bright, citrus-driven nose bolstered by an elegant nutty richness, the palate is vibrant, textural and seamless, concluding with a succulent and nuanced finish. As with the whole El Enemigo range, this offers a fantastic value that entirely transcends the price point.
