2020 Chardonnay Chacra Chacra, Patagonien (0,75l)

James Suckling - 2020 Chardonnay Chacra, Chacra

There’s real direction and clarity to this white with sliced dried apples, crushed stones and minerals on the nose, as well as hints of biscuit and praline. Some honeysuckle and lemon-grass undertones, too. It’s full-bodied, yet very tight and lively with a line of fresh acidity running through the palate, providing energy and depth. From the owner of Chacra and Burgundy’s Jean-Marc Roulot. Drinkable now, but much better in three to four years. Try after 2023. - James Suckling, Feb. 2022
