Details:

Laura Catena is the daughter of Argentine wine pioneer Nicolás Catena and founder of the Luca label. Her goal is to produce a new breed of Argentine wines:  small quantities, artisan quality, and true to their individual terroirs.

She starts with some of Argentina's best fruit from low-yielding, high elevation vineyards. Then she uses state of the art winemaking techniques to create this highly regarded Chardonnay.

The wine is a beautiful pale-gold color with aromas of lemon, baking spices and some tropical notes. The aromas carry through to the palate, and are mixed with hints of tropical fruit, spiced pear, and a stony/mineral component that creates a stylish wine that seems part New World and part Old World. It has a very long lasting finish.
 
This Chardonnay has a lot of flavor, but never loses its balance. Particularly recommended with dishes using sautéed wild mushrooms or butter sauces.
