"Bressia Monteagrelo combines the soul of each varietal, its intimate relationship with the origin and its deep roots with a unique terroir in the world...Monteagrelo is our family of wines and, as in any family, each one expresses their own identity and varietal personality that makes them unforgettable and unrepeatable." - Walter Bressia
Sourced from vineyards in the Tupungato district of Mendoza, 3,100 feet above sea level. 6,500 plants per hectare.
Greenish-yellow color with good intensity and luminous highlights. Aromas are typical of the variety, combined with a touch of the oak in which it was aged. On the palate it is fresh and floral, with good body and a long, elegant finish.
The well-made 2011 Chardonnay Monteagrelo spent six months in a combination of French and American oak. Exhibiting notes of poached pears, honeysuckle, oranges and tangerines in a medium-bodied, fruity, subtly wooded style, it can be enjoyed over the next 1-2 years.
