Domaine Bousquet Gran Chardonnay – Mendoza, Tupungato – White – 2024:

 

The Pinnacle of High-Altitude Organic Chardonnay

The Domaine Bousquet Gran Chardonnay White is a luxurious and intense expression of Argentina’s Uco Valley. Sourced from the winery’s highest-quality, organically farmed Chardonnay grapes, this wine showcases the unique terroir found at the foothills of the Andes Mountains. Partial aging in French oak barrels adds layers of complexity and a creamy texture that elevates it beyond the ordinary.

Tasting Notes: A Rich & Balanced Profile

• Appearance: Bright, luminous yellow color.
• Nose: An intense and sophisticated bouquet of ripe white fruits, notably pear and peach, beautifully interwoven with seductive notes of coconut and vanilla from the oak.
• Palate: Smooth and full-bodied, delivering a creamy mouthfeel with high volume. The wine maintains a refreshing acidity that provides a perfect balance to its richness, leading to a long, satisfying finish.

Pairing & Serving Suggestions

This is a serious, food-friendly Chardonnay. Serve chilled, but not ice-cold (50-54°F / 10-12°C), to allow its complex aromas to fully emerge.

• Food Pairing: Excellent with creamy pasta dishes, grilled seafood, or a classic roast chicken.
• Cellaring: Enjoy now for maximum fruit expression, or cellar for 3-5 years for added complexity.
