Tasting Notes

95
Vinous Joaquin Hidalgo - 24 Oct 25
The 2020 Chardonnay Las Pizarras from Aconcagua Costa is austere on the nose, with floral notes, apple and herbs, along with hints of pennyroyal and anise. The palate is enveloping and lifted by high, precise acidity.

Chile

Chile’s diverse geography – desert north, mountain spine, and coastal valleys – makes it a winemaker’s playground. From spicy Carménère to crisp Sauvignon Blanc, there’s a wealth of choice here. Newer regions like Limarí and Itata bring freshness and nuance, while Maipo and Colchagua deliver bold reds with classic poise. Chile continues to overdeliver, offering wines of quality and personality across the board.
