Enate Chardonnay Barrica 2022
Exuberant and complex aromas reveal a tantalizing blend of varietal characteristics such as hazelnut and toasted bread; tropical fruits, including pineapple and grapefruit, and hints of toasted oak from the barrel aging. On the palate it is mouth-filling and creamy and develops beautifully with a fresh acidity that finishes in an extraordinarily long finish, during which nuances of toastiness reappear.

More about this product
Enate
Винарната е физическият мост между изкуството на лозето и изкуството на човека. С амбицията да създават вина с най-високо качество в рамките на наименованието за произход Сомонтано и да показват най-доброто от тази привилегирована земя, те започват своето пътуване през 1991 г. Приемайки, че изкуството е същността на идентичността на ENATE, производителите разширяват тази концепция и я превръщат в реалност чрез създаването на вина си, съчетавайки почти математическия опит на винопроизводителя с импровизацията на художника, от който енологията черпи вдъхновение. Дизайнът, технологията и най-съвременните техники съжителстват с най-голямото уважение към традицията на винопроизводството, пораждайки уникални творения, където се показва най-голямата изразителност на всеки сорт и тероар. Всички вина са проектирани в подножието на лозето, като се фокусира върху сортовия характер, предлагайки баланс и елегантност като общ знаменател. Енате нямат магически рецепти и не следват предварително дефинирани модели. Времето винаги е непредсказуемо, така че те работят от лозето и във винарната, за да се адаптират към специфичните условия на всяка година.

Сомонтано
Somontano is a Spanish Denominación de Origen Protegida (DOP) for wines, created in 1984, and located in the county of the same name, in the province of Huesca, (Aragon, Spain). It borders the regions of Sobrarbe and Ribagorza in the North, Hoya de Huesca in the West, the Monegros in the South, and the region of Litera in the East. Wine production is centred on the town of Barbastro. The name Somontano, as its Latin roots suggest, means “beneath the mountain” – this perfectly defines this geographic area which spreads out from the foothills of the Pyrenees down to the Ebro valley. The DOP includes 43 municipalities, most of them in the Somontano area, and a few bordering on Ribagorza and the Monegros. There are over 4000 hectares of vines and about 500 individual grape-growers.

Chardonnay
Chardonnay is the world's most famous white-wine grape and also one of the most widely planted. Of course, the most highly regarded expressions of the variety are those from Burgundy and California, but many high-quality examples are made in Italy, Australia, New Zealand and parts of South America. Describing the flavours of Chardonnay is not easy. This is not thanks to the complexity of the varietal itself but usually due its susceptibility to winemaking techniques - such as Malolactic fermentation which gives distinctive buttery aromas or Fermentation or maturation in oak barrels which contributes to the wine with smokey notes of vanilla, honey and even cinnamon, and not last the lees contact while in barrel imparts biscuity, doughy flavours. And all these incorporated with the varietal aromas of tropical (banana, pineapple and guava) to stone fruits (peach, nectarine and apricot), sometimes even citrus and apple notes. Climate plays a major role in dictating which fruit flavours a Chardonnay will have - warm regions (California, Australia ) make more tropical styles; temperate zones (southern Burgundy, New Zealand) - stone fruit notes, while the very coolest (Chablis, Champagne) lean towards green-apple aromas.
