Chardonnay, Barrel fermented

Nekeas elaborate some pretty good wines, but above all, they produce some really nice white. El Rincon is a 100% Chardonnay, so you can compare it to some new world chardonnay or wines from Limoux (Southern France).

Chardonnay is unique variety, it produces some of the most sought-after wines in the world. In Australia you have the Giaconda wines, the Kistler from Sonoma in California or the Montrachet Grand Cru in Burgundy… But all of these are surely very nice, but also unaffordable. The greatness of Chardonnay it is highly adaptable to various climatic conditions, and production. So even though, it is fairly priced and from a less regarded region it can highly enjoyable.

Not often referred as a neutral variety (but it is), Chardonnay has the ability to love oak. The Oak treatment give it some more flavors, hence it result in a more complex wine.
