Bodega Argento – Reserva Chardonnay 2014 – Mendoza

Youthful white wine, very bright, with a medium intense straw colour. Fresh nose, clean; displaying some gentle hints of oak and there is quite ripe notes of citrus, yellow fruit and then some nutty notes, like almond, chopped nuts. Good bite on the palate. Bone dry I would say, no residual sugar. So it gives a very nice mouth-watering sensation. Quite nutty as well, but I suppose this is more from the grape it is not really a lot marked from the oak on the palate. I get again chopped almond, chopped nuts with ripe citrus, those yellow fruity notes. Very Chardonnay style, but slightly more firm and restrained in a positive sense. With a quite long finish, refreshing with well integrated oak flavours.
