Appearance |
The white wine Chivite Colección 125 Blanco is medium yellow with some golden tinges. |
Nose |
Complex and ever-evolving, this white wine fermented in oak has a buttery bouquet, with some smokey remembrances and notes of aromatic herbs and tropical fruit. This varietal Chardonnay also conveys a note of menthol, a deep mineral suggestion and hints of toasted dry fruit. |
Palate |
Unctuous, textured and still on the making, this wine from Bodegas Julián Chivite is superbly elegant, fresh and full of nuance. The wine nicely balances fruit and oak, with flavours of nutmeg, citrus, bone fruit, white flowers and sweet spices. This Crianza white wine has a long mineral finish with a creamy note. |
Our personal opinion |
On a par with many Burgundian Grand Crus, the age-worthy wine Chivite Colección 125 Blanco 2022 will please the most demanding aficionados. Excellent with white meats, oily fishes and soft cheeses. |
