Talinay is the name of a modest coastal range within the Limarí area, and also the name of the only vineyard planted there, situated on limestone and clay soils just seven miles from the cold Pacific shore. The 2023 Chardonnay Talinay Caliza is harvested from the vineyard's most calcareous soils, encompassing only 0.7 hectares of clonal material. Fermented and aged for ten months in barrels, this yellow wine with a greenish sheen unfolds pure pear and green apple aromas with hints of hazelnut, mint and lime. Initially dry, rich and fairly concentrated on the palate, it transitions into a saline, compact profile with a long-lasting finish and plenty of energy. This is a coastal Limarí Chardonnay at its best, crafted in a cold vintage for the area.
