Shop Review: From the winery formerly known as Finca El Reposo comes this blend of 90+ year old Chardonnay and the almost extinct grape Saint Jeannet. Seaint Jeannet originated in the South of France, but is now thought to exist only at the one vineyard in Argentina. Made from naturally from organically farmed grapes with almost nothing added later, wild yeast fermentation and no oak.
My Review: I did not like this wine personally. I knew that Chardonnay wines are usually dry but when I tasted this I was surprised on how bitter and dry the wine was. Although I did get a hint of fruit in the drink.
