Bodega Catena Zapata

Bodega y Viñedos Catena

Saint Felicien Chardonnay Barrel Fermented

WINE DESCRIPTION

The Agrelo Vineyard enjoys warm, sunny days and cold nights, allowing for perfect ripeness and balance. Of an intense yellow colour with light greenish hues, the nose is complex and elegant, displaying ripe pineapple, pear and peach with light hints of vanilla. On the palate, a sweet, unctuous entry leads to an intense wine packed with ripe fruit and subtle vanilla and toasted oak flavours. Finishes long, fresh and lingering.
