Finca Natalina Chardonnay
Argentine Chardonnay from San Juan, priced for the everyday table.
The story behind Finca Natalina
Finca Natalina Chardonnay comes out of San Juan, Argentina, a desert province most drinkers skip past on the way to Mendoza. The fruit grows in the Tulum Valley at Angaco, roughly 700 meters up in the foothills of the Andes. Bodega Putruele, the family estate behind the label, was founded in 1958 by Don Carlos Putruele, an Italian immigrant who planted his stake in that dry ground.
The winemaking stays deliberately simple. Juice ferments in stainless steel at 14°C to hold the fruit forward, then rests three months on French oak staves for a little vanilla and toast without burying the crispness. We have poured this style for Long Island customers for years because it behaves like a house white should.
