✨ Tekniske specifikationer
The Trapiche Terroir Series Piedras Chardonnay is a masterclass in high-altitude viticulture, sourced from the stony, calcium carbonate-rich soils of Gualtallary in the Uco Valley, Mendoza. Situated at over 1,300 meters above sea level, these extreme conditions force the vines to dig deep, resulting in a Chardonnay of remarkable tension and mineral complexity. The name 'Piedras' pays homage to the round river stones that dominate the vineyard floor, radiating heat back to the vines during the cool mountain nights. Fermented with native yeasts and aged in select French oak barrels, this wine beautifully balances the natural, electric acidity of the high Andes with a rich, textured palate of white peach, citrus blossom, and a distinct flinty minerality.
🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten
Bodega Trapiche blev grundlagt i 1883 af Tiburcio Benegas og hører til blandt Argentinas ældste, mest ansete og internationalt anerkendte vinproducenter med base i Maipú, Mendoza. Vingården holder til i et historisk vineri i florentinsk stil for foden af Andesbjergene, hvor over et århundredes vindyrkningstradition forenes med nyskabende innovation og biodynamiske metoder. Trapiche er berømt som en sand pioner for argentinsk Malbec og samarbejder med dedikerede vinbønder i de bedste mikroklimaer for at skabe terroirdrevne Single Vineyard-aftapninger, alsidige Oak Cask-varianter samt elegante hvidvine og mousserende vine, der alle hylder Mendozas mangeartede terroirs.
