Errazuriz, Las Pizarras Chardonnay, Costa, 2018

World-class Chardonnay made not far from the Pacific coast using fruit sourced from small plots grown on slate (‘las pizarras’ in Spanish). The wine combines exuberance of fruit including white peaches and star fruit, with hazelnuts, praline, dried fruits, toast and sweet spices. On the palate it is dry, beautifully balanced with a sophisticated, creamy texture and underlying tension. The finish is persistent and includes well-judged oaky notes and wonderful savoury complexity.
