Catena White Stones Chardonnay 2021 is a full-bodied, single-vineyard dry white wine from the Tupungato sub-region of the Uco Valley in Mendoza, Argentina. Produced from a small section of Block 1 of the Catena family`s Adrianna Vineyard, planted at almost 1,500m elevation in the Gualtallary sub-district of Tupungato, this barrel-fermented Chardonnay is matured for 12-16 months in second, third and fourth-use French oak barrels, with periodic lees stirring. "The 2021 White Stones Chardonnay is subtler and more elegant, a little closed with moderate ripeness and alcohol (12.5%) and a mineral palate with strong chalky sensations." Luis Gutiérrez, 2022
