Bodegas Salentein | Portillo Chardonnay - NV

Punchy prickly citrus aromas are clearly that of Sauvignon Blanc. Light in color and weight, this tastes of tangy citrus with a shot of black and green pepper. Lime is the key flavor noted on a clean but mild finish.

Producer Information

Bodegas Salentein is an Argentinian wine producer, located in Mendoza's Uco Valley. It produces a wide range of wines from classic Argentinian grape varieties, headed by the Gran VU Blend, a Malbec-based blend with Cabernet Sauvignon. The estate is comprised of about 800 hectares (1100 acres) of vineyards in the Uco Valley. Altitude has a significant impact on the terroir here with vineyards between 1050 and 1700 meters (3444 to 5577 feet) above sea level. A majority of the vineyards are planted to red grape varieties like Malbec, Cabernet Sauvignon and Pinot Noir, although around a fifth of the vineyard is planted to white grapes, including Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc. Along with the Gran VU, Salentein produces several different wine ranges. The Primus and Single Vineyard ranges are at the top end, and consist of varietal wines sourced from the estate's key grape varieties. There is also a Malbec-dominant Bordeaux blend called Numina Gran Corte of which spends approximately five years aging in the cellar prior to release. Bodega Salentein also produces wines under the Killka and Portillo labels.
