Santa Rita Floresta Chardonnay 2023 is a distinguished expression of Chile's Limarí Valley, where calcium-rich soils, cooling Pacific breezes and morning mist create ideal conditions for exceptional Chardonnay. Produced from two carefully selected vineyard blocks near Punitaqui, this award-winning wine is fermented and matured on its lees in French oak barrels, developing remarkable depth and texture while retaining the freshness and minerality of its coastal origins.
Delicate aromas of white peach, pear and grapefruit unfold alongside honeysuckle, subtle oak spice and a touch of toasted vanilla. The palate is beautifully rounded and creamy, balanced by lively citrus acidity and a distinctive mineral character that carries through to a long, elegant finish. Awarded 94 points by Alistair Cooper MW, this is a sophisticated Chardonnay with the structure to accompany a fine meal and the freshness to enjoy on its own.
Best served chilled at 10–12°C with buttered lobster, scallops, grilled white fish, roast chicken, mushroom risotto or soft cheeses.
