Château Los Boldos 1999 CLB Reserve Chardonnay (Rapel Valley)

Country: Chile / Rapel Valley
Variety: Chardonnay
Winery: Château Los Boldos / CLB Reserve

Pungent, grassy aromas seem off center for Chardonnay, while the mouthfeel is heavy and the flavors seem derived from overripe fruit. The finish is woody and has plenty of texture, but there’s also a piercing bolt of acidity running through the middle.
