"Extreme Terroir from Chile"

This Clos des Fous Locura 2 Chardonnay 2016 wine from Chile comes from the region of Itata, which is located approx. 500km south of the Chilean capital Santiago de Chile. The weather in this region is mostly cloudy throughout the year and the average rainfall is 600 to 800mm per year. The vineyards on which the Chardonnay vines grow consist mainly of volcanic basalt, which gives the Chardonnay an unmistakable mineral component.
