The resulting wine is a rich and elegant Chardonnay with aromas of tropical fruit, vanilla, and toasted oak, balanced by bright acidity and a long finish.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This Bodegas Bianchi Famiglia Bianchi Chardonnay is an exceptional white from Argentina’s Uco Valley.On the nose, this wine has delicate aromas of white peach and pear that mingle with hints of sweet grass, almond and lemon. On the palate, the wine is well-structured with a concentrated flavor of ripe stone fruit and a creamy texture that is balanced by crisp acidity and subtle oak spice. The finish is long and lingering, making this an ideal choice for those who appreciate the finer things in life.

ORIGINS
Winery: Bodegas Bianchi
Region: Mendoza
Mendoza is the largest wine-producing region in Argentina, located in the foothills of the Andes Mountains. It is known for its high-altitude vineyards, producing some of the country's most renowned wines. With a long history of winemaking, Mendoza is now one of the most important wine regions in South America. The territory of Mendoza can be divided into five large sub-regions, which give the varieties their particular characteristics: Valle de Uco GI, integrated by the departments of Tunuyán, Tupungato and San Carlos; Primera Zona, which includes the departments of Luján de Cuyo and Maipú; the Northern oasis (Lavalle and Las Heras), the East (San Martín, Rivadavia, Junín, Santa Rosa and La Paz) and the South (San Rafael, Malargüe and General Alvear), covering practically the entire provincial geography.
Mendoza has been producing wine since the 16th century, when Spanish settlers first brought vines to the region. Since then, the region has become a major producer of both red and white wines, with a focus on Malbec, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Torrontés. In recent years, Mendoza has become a leader in sustainable winemaking, with many producers focusing on organic and biodynamic practices.CUSTOMER RATING
