Herencia Tupungato, located in Argentina's renowned Uco Valley, is committed to producing exceptional wines that reflect the unique terroir of this high-altitude region. The winery’s focus on sustainability and quality is evident in every bottle, with careful attention to vineyard practices and winemaking techniques. Tupungato’s cool climate provides ideal conditions for cultivating Chardonnay, where the balance of acidity and fruit expression shines.
This Chardonnay is a true reflection of the region’s character. It’s made from carefully selected grapes harvested from 15-year-old vines, which offer concentrated flavours due to the high altitude of the vineyards. The wine undergoes fermentation in stainless steel tanks, preserving the fresh fruit profile, with a small portion aged in oak for added complexity.
In the glass, it displays a brilliant golden colour with slight greenish hues. The nose is vibrant, offering aromas of ripe white peach, citrus zest, and a touch of floral notes. On the palate, this wine is refreshing with bright acidity and flavours of lemon, pear, and subtle vanilla, balanced by a creamy texture from a brief time spent in oak. The finish is crisp, with lingering citrus and mineral notes.
