DESCRIPTION
Casarena 505 Chardonnay 2023 is crafted from grapes grown on sandy and stony soils in Luján de Cuyo, Mendoza, at an altitude of over 1,000 meters. Aged entirely in stainless steel tanks, it preserves all the liveliness and freshness of the grape variety. Casarena, founded in 2008 by the Dartley family, works its historic terroirs of Perdriel and Agrelo through viticulture in organic conversion.
The aromatic profile blends green apple, pear, and white flowers with subtle notes of lemon zest and almond. The texture is round and creamy, supported by a beautiful freshness and a slightly saline finish. At the table, it pairs well with a white fish ceviche or a roasted chicken with herbs. Estimated aging potential of 3 years.
REGION
Mendoza
Argentina
Mendoza is the largest wine region in Argentina. Set on a high altitude plateau at the edge of the Andes, the province accounts for around 70% of the country's annual wine production. The French grape Malbec has found its New World home in the vineyards of Mendoza, producing red wines of great concentration and intensity. While Malbec is without doubt the star of the region, you will also find many plantings of Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay, Syrah, Torrontés and Sauvignon Blanc.
