Carta Vieja Chardonnay. Chile
Using arguably the best conditions in the world for growing grapes, Chile is now a major player in the wine trade. Using canals and streams built by the Incas, the wines are irrigated and have a perfect ripening season. This wine is a great example of what Chile is good at. Big, juicy, fruity flavours with no harshness in the wine at all.
