El Enemigo Chardonnay Mendoza

About this bottle

A collaboration between Catena's winemaking director, Alejandro Vigil, and Adrianna Catena, El Enemigo ranks among a select handful of reference-point producers in Argentina. With an annual production of roughly two million bottles, the project is all the more impressive for its ability to marry quality with quantity. The portfolio focuses on the Uco Valley, with smaller holdings spanning Luján de Cuyo, Maipú and eastern Mendoza.

Tasting notes

"Produced from sites in Gualtallary. Crushed stones, dried herbs, green fruits and saline overtones mark the nose, introducing one of the richer, broader palates in the introductory El Enemigo range. The finish recalls the energy of the nose, lingering long with pronounced salinity and herbal overtones." ~ 93pts, Wine Advocate; 95pts, Vinous Media
