Tropical guava, caramel and vanilla with a little citrus lemongrass. Great with roast chicken.
Tasted Nov. 2018
Malcolm Lamont - WSET Adv, CSW rated this wine as 88/100 with the following review:

This is an un-oaked Chardonnay from Argentina, and was beautiful, clean and balanced. With fresh apple, grape and lemon flavours on the palate, this is a great summer-sipper.
Jon Steeves - Sommelier rated this wine as 87/100 with the following review:

Offering value and freshness, this cool climate new world unoaked Chardonnay shows dry, medium bodied, crisp and tart apple with a hint of lime zest. Pair with poultry, white fish dishes, goat cheese salad, appetizers and drinking well on its own. Crowd pleasing freshness and accessibly priced. Tasted 2017 vintage in May 2018. 87 points
Sharon Lécuyer rated this wine as 86/100 with the following review:

Faint aromas of stone fruit and apple. Lime zest, and lemon on the palette with hints of apple. Crisp on the mouth with lots of acidity, medium-bodied with a lingering finish.

Pair with goat cheese or seafood.
Courtney Flood rated this wine as 85/100 with the following review:

Light and unassuming wine with yellow apple, lime, pear; pair with your soup or salad course.
