2019 CONCHA Y TORO CHARDONNAY AMELIA
"The 2019 Chardonnay Amelia was harvested in Quebrada Seca, Limarí, during a sunny year. Overseen by oenologist Marcelo Papa and made in a Burgundy style, it is aged for 12 months in French barrels, one-fifth of them new. Yellow with golden flecks. The intense but still austere aromas include lime, herbs, ginger and honey and hints of acacia. The mouth is where it really comes into its own: direct, with packaged freshness and texture, the work with the lees rounds everything off with a long, elegant, saline finish and a hint of smoke. A cerebral, thoroughly enjoyable white." Joaquín Hidalgo Vinous Media 95 points Drink 2022-29
