A rich, full-bodied Chardonnay made in Alto Valle del Río Negro, Patagonia by genius winemaker, Elias López. The vines were planted in 2002, and at 39˚ South, the climate is cool: leading to vibrant citrus flavours, and 11 months' ageing in 500 litre barrels brings additional nuances of vanilla, butter and caramel.

Press Review
" The subtle and fresh white 2019 Verum Soul D. Chardonnay is only 13% alcohol and was produced with grapes from shaded vines planted 20 years ago on stony soils. This fermented in 500-liter oak barrels with indigenous yeasts where it matured with lees for 11 months, but the wine is not oaky or leesy at all. It's transparent and pure with a sense of freshness and balance that I like very much. It finishes dry and with a salty note. Excellent. Drink 2021-2024. "
Winemaking
Manual harvest, followed by destemming and pressing. Static racking off the gross lees, into new 500 litre barrels . Minimal intervention in the cellar: fermentation with indigenous yeast and 11 months' ageing in barrels on the fine lees before bottling without filtration.
