Magellan 2005 Chardonnay

 

We at PengWine have heard you. In creating this crisp chardonnay, we processed it in stainless steel rather than wood. The result is a wine you can drink by itself on a warm afternoon sitting on the back porch, but that has the backbone you want to pair with fish or other foods. It is an answer to all those over-oaked, nothing-but-butter chardonnays. This one is for you! Crisp, tropical fruit abounds on the nose and repeats on the palate.  We understand you are looking for wines that are different from the traditional, and Magellan exemplifies Chilean terroir. The grapes matured on the vines in the Maipo Valley and were enveloped in cool, soft Pacific Ocean breezes. Try this refreshing Chardonnay today.

While the Magellan is out of stock here, you can buy it through a local retailer, The Wine Alley.
