The 2011 Catalpa Chardonnay from Tupungato is aged for ten months in Taransaud barrel. It has a lush, tropical bouquet that is nicely controlled, whilst the palate has a slight viscous entry and a smooth, creamy veneer of oak on the generous finish. Easy drinking and well-crafted drink this over the next couple of years. Drink now-2013. Importer: Davis Wine Co., Davis, CA; tel. (530) 758-2870
