100% Chardonnay sourced from the sandy soil of Lot 1 in the Adrianna vineyard. The 2002 growing season was characterized by slightly above normal temperatures in March, with average temperatures reaching 18.3° C. Nights, however, were colder than normal, with average minimums down to 11.2° C. The warm sunny days ensured excellent ripeness of pear and apple flavors while the cool nights retained natural acidity and increased floral and mineral aromatic components. This vintage should be enjoyed in 3 years and will continue to improve over the following 8 years.

El 2002 Catena Alta Chardonnay presenta colores amarillo-verdosos. La nariz es intensa y concentrada, con aromas a pera y manzana madura y notas de vainilla, cítricas y florales. En boca ofrece sabores concentrados de peras e higos, con un fuerte componente mineral y elementos dulces de pimienta. El final es largo y persistente con una presente y definida acidez.
