The 2024 vintage experienced less sea fog, or "camanchaca," resulting in higher solar radiation and an earlier harvest. Although the vineyard’s lime-rich, low-clay soils typically impart richness to Chardonnay, this wine displays intense salinity and the austerity of a lime-soaked white, with mineral notes dominating the nose. The palate is firm, vibrant, and energetic, with high acidity, an excellent expression of one of South America's finest Chardonnays.

A ripe nose that has both cereal notes — mealy — and a richness of fruit: nectarine and peach. The palate is fresh and full of amazing texture and weight — this has power and intensity, with beautifully judged acidity. The fruit is balanced and rich without being heavy — fresh, with a lovely, vibrant mid-palate. A layered finish, peach-led and with a chalky mid-palate and ripe nectarine note — full of fruit yet with lovely acidity. Fresh, nervy, and with a long, refined finish.
