We tasted 17 wines today with owner Sebastian De Martino. He started us off with their 17 Reserve Legado Chardonnay. I liked it quite a bit. It reminded me of good Chablis with some slight differences. It was elegant and delicate. Some butteriness, honeysuckle, creamy but on the leaner side of creamy. Lemon custard, lemon, lime, green melon, guava, pineapple, nice saline & minerality with lilies and yellow florals. Excellent acidity and beautiful, rich finish. If this hasn’t landed in the US, it soon will. Buy some bottles, as it’s not only very good, it’s a steal at $20-$25.
