Origin

Produced in Chile, the Basalt Chardonnay is crafted in the Casablanca Valley, a renowned wine region known for its cool climate and ideal conditions for white grape varieties.

Variety

This wine is made exclusively from the Chardonnay grape variety, celebrated for its versatility and ability to express terroir.

Production

The Basalt Chardonnay undergoes careful vinification, including cold fermentation to preserve fresh fruit aromas. The wine is aged in a combination of stainless steel tanks and French oak barrels, allowing a balance of crispness and subtle oak complexity.
