Vintage Report

De vintage 2025 is een toekomstige oogst, waarvoor nog geen beoordelingen beschikbaar zijn.

One of the best-selling wines from the De Gras Reserva series. Reserva refers to the wine's oak aging. The grapes for this De Gras Chardonnay Reserva come from Chile's most famous wine valley, the Colchagua Valley. In 1993, the Gras brothers decided to establish themselves in this valley with the beautiful Viña Montgras. The winery was built from the ground up and has since become one of Chile's most renowned wineries. Hernán and Eduardo's goal was to produce fine wines for the Chilean people. However, the wines proved to be a broader success, receiving numerous awards from the international wine press.

The old Chardonnay vineyard of De Gras

This De Gras Chardonnay is made with great care and love for the wine and nature. For example, pesticides are used as little as possible, and Viña Montgras is also increasingly focusing on the use of solar panels. Until recently, the De Gras Reserva series was known as Montgras Reserva. Since the new labeling, Hernán and Eduardo have also chosen a new name for this sought-after line. The Chardonnay vines for this Chilean white wine are planted so that the grapes can soak up plenty of sunshine. Thanks to the cool nighttime temperatures from the Andes, the grapes also retain a pleasant freshness. Once the grapes reach ideal ripeness, around April, the harvest begins. This harvest is carried out entirely by hand to select only the best grapes for this top-quality Chardonnay. After the grapes are pressed, the wine is aged for five months in used French oak barrels. This aging process creates beautiful structure and great depth in the wine.

The aroma and taste of De Gras Chardonnay Reserva

This De Gras Chardonnay certainly has depth! Its color is a beautiful golden yellow with a sparkling sheen. The nose offers rich aromas of tropical fruit, vanilla, and a hint of citrus. The flavor is perfectly balanced. Deliciously buttery and full, as we would expect from a good oak-aged Chardonnay. Rich flavor nuances of tropical fruit, with mango and pineapple pleasantly prominent, alternate with hints of vanilla, yellow cream, and roasted nuts. The finish is mild and full with a pleasantly oily note.
