The Wine The Wine
Chile
Region:Valle Central
A double check in chess is a dramatic move, delivering pressure from two directions at once, leaving the opponent with no choice but to act swiftly. Much like this strategic manoeuvre, Double Check Chardonnay commands attention with its dual impact of bold flavours and refined elegance. From the first sip, indulgent aromas of butter and toasted hazelnut meet the bright zest of lemon and ripe tropical fruit, creating a symphony of complexity. A portion of the blend undergoes malolactic fermentation, lending a creamy texture, while American and French oak add structure and a hint of warmth. Grown in Chile's alluvial soils, this wine showcases vibrant acidity, balanced richness and a luxurious honeyed finish that lingers long after the glass is empty. It's a wine for those who appreciate finesse and a punch of character - an irresistible move for any wine lover.

"Fresh on the nose with notes recalling honey, fruits like peaches and banana, with a light touch of citrus and elegantly complemented by sweet vanilla and caramel notes from the contact with American and French oak. The palate is creamy and well-balanced with very good acidity highlighting its juiciness and persistence." - Óscar Salas Steinlen, Winemaker.
