Nectarine — Grapes Varieties — Every Glass Matters

Chardonnay

Known for the unfair term ABC (Anything But Chardonnay) this is a variety with a mixed reputation. At its best, the wines can be highly complex, with a great ageing ability and show great winemaking skill. At its worst, it can be dull, flabby and forgettable.

Argentina’s signature white grape variety falls behind the fame of Malbec but should be equally celebrated.
