Expert Review - Vintage 2021
Vinous 93 Points | The 2021 Chardonnay Cordillera de los Andes comes from the Talinay vineyard in Limarí. 50% was aged in French barrels, 23% of them new. Yellow with a greenish sheen. The nose offers green apple notes with hints of pear, acacia, hazelnuts and a whiff of praline over a bed of oak. In the mouth it has a saline feel with a slightly creamy flow and pert freshness. A long-lasting wine.

The nose displays great aromatic complexity, revealing floral notes peach and lychee. Fresh on the palate, with juicy acidity, and a briny streak that is the hallmark of Limarí's calcareous soils.
(Vinous 2020) Zekun Shuai writes: A very flinty chardonnay with pure limey fruit and a hint of green apples and fine lees. Oyster shells and subtle cream. Quite a different wine from the past. This is salty and zingy with a textured, medium-bodied palate with a pungent, saline-driven finish. Very mineral. Delicious. Drink now. Screw cap. - James Suckling 93
(Vinous 2020) Aaron Romano writes: A clean version, with notes of mineral and vanilla mixed with star fruit and yellow apple flavors, picking up spice details on the finish. Drink now. - Wine Spectator
(VInous 2020) 93 Tasting Panel Nice complexity from barrel fermentation and aging. Expressive and layered with lemon, pear, apricot, ginger cream, and a hint of licorice. Quite rich and lovely, not to mention a steal for the price.
