"Taste a chardonnay typical of the heights of the Andes, pure and floral!"
"The Catena Chardonnay 2021 is vibrant and harmonious, with plenty of balance and freshness, varietal with elegant, shy aromas of white flowers and a long, dry finish with purity of flavor, imperceptible oak and very good overall balance." (The Wine Advocate 2022)
