influence and for being the first valley in Chile to receive cold
weather, making it ideal for the production of white wines.
The Reserva Chardonnay has a golden color and is fresh and clean to
the nose. It is characterized by notes of vanilla, cream and banana.
In the mouth, it is crisp, dry and refreshing. Suggested
