Calathus Chardonnay 2013

This beautifully balanced Chardonnay has aromas of fresh tropical fruits, vanilla, a hint of oak, and a full-bodied, almost buttery sensation on the tongue. Oaky chardonnay has been out in the wilderness for too long - it's time you uncorked its charms once more...

Six months of ageing in French oak - and a further 8 months in bottle - produces a magnificently rich Chardonnay that Finca Don Carlos is rightly proud of.

Their flagship Chardonnay is ripe with the aromas of tropical fruit, vanilla, and oak and green olives, while in the mouth it surprises with a firm, balanced acidity, and a buttery, unctuous flavour that clings to the tongue. It's a wonderful example of Argentinian Chardonnay and one that will not disappoint.

Calathus - Finca Don Carlos

Finca Don Carlos's vineyards are located in Tupungato, in the heart of Mendoza's Uco Valley, 1,000 metres above sea level. The 40 year old vines are planted on espaliers and pergola trellises (also known as parral cuyano). The winery was founded in 2003 and the Calathus branded wines you find on our website are named after the ceramic vases that were used to serve wine in Roman times.
