Trapiche Broquel Chardonnay

The Chardonnay grapes come from selected Trapiche vineyards in Mendoza Province. Trapiche Winery was founded in 1883 at the foot of the Andes. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature of 15 degrees. After fermentation, the wine is aged for 9 months in oak barrels.

The soil is sandy and irrigated with water from the Andes. The grapes are destemmed, and the must is fermented for one hour at 5°C. Fermentation then continues for 12 days in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature.

Dry Chardonnay from Mendoza, Argentina, pairs beautifully with creamy pasta dishes, grilled chicken, or baked trout. Its gentle acidity and fruity notes also complement milder cheeses, such as Brie or Camembert, as well as grilled vegetables like zucchini or asparagus. This Chardonnay is also ideal with seafood, such as shrimp or oysters.

The winery was a pioneer in areas
such as introducing French grape varieties.
Today, it is one of the largest wine producers in
Argentina and exports to more than 80 countries.
