Tasting note
The super fresh and elegant 2015 Catena Alta Chardonnay has penetrating aromas and I could swear I smelled wet stones, a soil-driven white that feels cleaner and sharper than the 2014. The palate has electric acidity, moderate alcohol and great freshness. It finishes with an austere, mineral-driven sensation. It would be fun to put this wine as a ringer in a blind white Burgundy tasting. Drink Date: 2016-2020. Score - 93. (Luis Gutierrez, robertparker.com, Dec. 30, 2016)
This dry, full-bodied and woody white displays a complex and intense nose. On the palate, its refreshing acidity and full-bodied texture precede a long finish.
