Antares Chardonnay

An uncomplicated Chardonnay from Chile's Maule Valley – fresh, approachable and versatile.

Santa Carolina is one of Chile's oldest wineries, founded in Santiago in 1875. The Antares line sources its grapes from the Maule Valley , one of the country's oldest wine regions in central Chile. The Chardonnay in this series is aged with light oak contact – unlike most other Antares wines, which are not aged in oak barrels at all.

In the glass, it displays ripe citrus fruit – lime and grapefruit – complemented by a subtle hint of vanilla and smoke from the oak aging. The body is soft, the acidity moderate, the finish short and pleasing.

Serving temperature: 10–12 °C. Pairs well with grilled sea bass, herbed chicken breast, light pasta dishes with cream sauce, or as an aperitif. Ready to drink, no aging potential.

The Winery

Santa Carolina

Santa Carolina is a Chilean winery and was founded in 1875 by Luis Pereyra Cotapos. The main location is in the middle of the city of Santiago de Chile, with six different growing regions distributed around it. The regions include Casablanca Valley, Leyda Valley, Maipo Valley, Cashapoal Valley, Colchagua Valley, and Maule Valley.

Due to the proximity to the Pacific Ocean and the proximity to the Andes, the regions offer diverse climatic conditions; thus, summer and winter can be relatively cool seasons in one region, while mild winters and hot summers prevail in another.

For the production of the wines, Villa Carolina grows varieties on its vineyard areas such as Sauvignon Blanc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay, Merlot, or Shiraz.
