DESCRIPCIÓN
The G LOT, planted in 1992, was the first extreme high altitude Chardonnay planted in Mendoza (5,000 feet elevation). Rocky soils with dense calcareous sediments. Mineral aromatics and optimal acidity.
Beautiful pale-gold color with enticing aromas of lemon crème, baking spices and mineral long finished. The aromas carry through to the palate, and are joined by hints of white peach flavors and , spiced baked pear, and a stony/mineral flavor that creates a stylish wine that seems part New and part Old World. Pairs well with most fish, crab, chicken, and even many pork preparations. Particularly recommended with dishes using sautéed wild mushrooms or butter sauces. This wine will age well for years in a cellar.
