A creamy yet elegant wine with luscious tropical fruit and white peach flavours, beautifully balanced by a fresh finish. The grapes are sourced from Central Valley and in the main handpicked. The quality to price ratio that this wine offers is the reason Chile is such an outstanding wine-making country at all price levels.
As one of the pioneers of Chilean Chardonnay, Cousiño Macul has been cultivating this noble variety since the late 19th century, when vine cuttings were brought directly from Burgundy, France, and rooted in the sunlit soils of the Maipo Valley. Today, this heritage lives on in a wine that reflects both tradition and a vibrant, modern expression of place.
In the glass, the 2022 Chardonnay gleams with a golden hue edged by subtle green highlights. The nose is lively and aromatic, offering a fragrant bouquet of tropical pineapple and passion fruit, lifted by fresh notes of green apple and delicate elderflower. On the palate, the wine is crisp and fruit-forward, with a refreshing acidity that makes it both engaging and effortlessly drinkable.
Perfect as an elegant aperitif, this Chardonnay also pairs beautifully with dishes such as salmon ceviche, Caesar salad, or pasta with a vibrant pesto sauce.
